Following the release of his debut album ‘Boy Alone’ last year, Nigerian singer Omah Lay has revealed that he dealt with a lot of pain and suicidal thoughts while recording the album.
In a recent interview with Steph TV, Omah Lay talked about the motivation behind the album and his creative mental space.
He said, “I was suicidal. I was really *BLEEP* up. I think I had to be there to actually help people who are there to get out of it. It will take a very bold person to speak about it so openly.”
He continued, “Everybody is out there saying Afrobeats is not so deep and it is just vibes. This is because everyone is out there making hype the real music is dead. That’s why people like me will always try. I’m one of the realest you can find and I’m putting it on Afrobeats.”
Omah Lay stated that while listeners might not fully comprehend the message in the album and the essence it carries, ‘Boy Alone’ is a piece of art that will stay relevant even after a decade.
He said, “People call Afrodepression but don’t worry in ten years you will go back to the album because everyone goes through things.”
Omah Lay also advised people who go through things to always take time to fix their minds because life is beautiful when you feed your mind right.
