Bella Shmurda Opens Up About Her Money Troubles in the Music Industry

Nigerian street pop artist, Akinbiyi Abiola Ahmed Popularly known as Bella Shmurda, he has shared his experience of losing money on a song that failed to gain popularity.

During an interview with Afrobeats Intelligence On Friday, Bella disclosed that he had once invested $40,000 in a song which surprisingly failed to achieve success.

Bella mentioned that he continued testing the song even after getting a message about it in his dreams.

"I consider myself a visionary, someone who can foresee things. There was a particular track scheduled for release which I ended up postponing. In a dream, it became clear to me that my subsequent song needed to resonate with the streets. Clearly, 'Alright, your next composition must capture the essence of the streets.' To confirm this insight, I decided to put out another tune first as a test run. Ensuring accuracy meant releasing something unconventional rather than appealing to popular tastes. That initial attempt did poorly despite spending $40,000 on marketing. However, when I finally launched an authentic street anthem without investing more than about 20 million [currency], the song climbed all the way to number two nationally," he explained.
