Nigerian
rapper
and singer Falz has opened up on the inspiration behind his latest album, ‘The Feast’.
In an interview with
Naija FM
on Monday, Falz stated that Africans need to let go of the ‘every man for himself’ mentality.
He further explained that the mentality hinders collective growth, stating that everyone was guilty of this.
Falz said that both political leaders and citizens put their interests first.
“The message I’m pushing across is ‘community.’ I feel like we need a sense of community because the mentality that we have in this country and Africa is the ‘every man for himself’ one, and it’s not good.
“We constantly complain about how the government isn’t good. Why? We need to think about the collective, every person, and we need to be there for each other.
“The only way we can progress and reach our full potential as a continent is if we move together. That’s the general message of my album, even though it’s not literal. It’s not as intense and direct as some of my other ones. With this one, you need to sit and listen,” he said.
