Nigerian singer, Esegine Allen, better known as Orezi, has opened up on the reason for his unpopularity in the music industry today.

Speaking in a recent episode of Hip TV programme, 'Trending', Orezi explained that becoming less ambitious and comfortable fuelled his musical decline.

He noted that competition fuels consistency, while citing Afrobeats star, Davido as one to emulate with his ambitious spirit.

Orezi said:
“I faded out [of the music industry] because I became less ambitious and comfortable with where I am. I was always on vacation, enjoying myself. I became less ambitious and took myself out of the competition [in the music industry].

“Competition fuels consistency. Look at Davido for example, he hustles like an underground artist. He has money and fame but he still maintains his hustling spirit.”
