I just recorded a song with my Life Savings, I Feel Depressed. by Iamdbull: 6:52pm On Jan 16, 2021
I decided to open a new account to post this, as I am posting this am holding tears back because am inside a bus from Lagos back to my base in Ogun state.

The last thing I want in my life is to be a public figure because am a strong introvert and I hardly go out, I just want to be left alone.

Now during this festive period I travelled to my home state and on getting home, everyone was just talking about my old song and they were disturbing me to freestyle for them.

Deep down this started making me feel like am not following my purpose in life, I started having this feeling that on my dying bed I will live to regret that I didnt following my music career and thinking about the number of people my music could have put smile on their faces. I will never forgive myself, because what is life when you cant use your talent to be of service to humanity.

When I see younger artiste like Omah lay, Bella schmurda, etc I start feeling jealous and envious and the last thing I want is to be envious of another man's success.


Now even though everywhere was a lively mood and everywhere bubbling in the studio. On going home I started becoming depressed looking at the amount of money I spent on recording ( I really wanted the best so I decided to work with an expensive professional sound engineer that worked on Wizkid made in lagos album.

I can't tell anybody about what I did because I will be mocked at home for spending such an amount on my useless music career(as they will say at home). Tears is beginning to roll down my eyes as I write this but fortunately everywhere is dark.

I am panicking and feeling the song will be wack when it comes out and am a good for nothing person. I can't hold back tears in the bus.

Below is a picture of when I was invited by glo to come and perform but I bleeped it up because I was too shy to perform well in front of the crowd, Tuface, D'banj, don jazzy, Wizkid were all present

The reason why am writing this here is because nairaland is my only home. it's my only family. I love you all

Who told you that you still can’t blow in your music career?

Larry Gaga, Fatai Rolling dollars should encourage you and stop being an introvert

Doing what you love should give you joy and ultimately money would follow

when u have accepted their useless music career label.. if ur heart wasnt encouraging u why did u go on? if u dont believe in urself no one will..even when others dont believe u must

success in music or any biz is marketing..even a link for us to hear the new track u didnt post..
no one will come nd wake you up on ur bed 2 hear ur track.

Well, what is done is done. All you have to do is hold on to the rail and hope for the best.

In any case, he who risks nothing, profits nothing. Remain optimistic. Maybe you could be the next Davido.


And even if it doesn't work out, you've learnt one more thing that you should not do in future. As Thomas Edison is reported to have said on his finally perfecting the invention of a light bulb after over a thousand attempts:

"I didn't fail a thousand times, the light bulbs merely took a thousand steps to invent"

and in another quote;

"I've just discovered a thousand ways that don't work"

Congratulations for taking the plunge. Millions never have the courage to go through. They only plan and plan and plan and end up nowhere. At least you're on the way. Remember, the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step; even if that first step is a stumble.

Good luck.

@Iamdbull

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

If you want to pursue a career in music, pursue it with all your mind. No regrets.

If youll rather do something else, do it without looking back at music.

A double minded man is already a failure at heart.

SUCH A TACTICAL WAY OF PROMOTING YOUR MUSIC,BUT DONT DULGE INTO MUSIC BECAUSE OF ENVY AND WEALTH, U GO JUST FALL AFTER ONE HIT TRACK!

It's part of the process bro, keep calm and continue the hustle wink

Late 2019, Omah Lay was in a one room apartment, reconsidering his chosen career..look at where he is today. Don't give up bro, you still have a chance of "blowing".

This shows that u are not ready to pursue your music career.
No link to access your music, u only came here to condemn yourself all by yourself.

A film that I watch today is similar to your story a little bit but the film ends well after the main character left her sin and found God.
