Fuji star, Abass Akande Obesere says the current social media buzz he’s enjoying at the moment is a manifestation of what God told him.
Obesere has been trending on social media recently after a snippet version of his song ‘Egungun Be Careful’ video became viral on Twitter. He said he’s trending at the moment because God had promised him that he would promote him from generation to generation.
He said “Firstly, I thank God. Being able to be relevant over a long period is what professionalism is about. There is something we call ‘playback’ in the music industry — that is a song that has a long lifespan and is still relevant years after its release. Any song that doesn’t have ‘playback’ is not good. In my song, Overthrow, I sang that I, Omo rapala, had taken over. That record is still being played and other albums such as Mr Teacher, OBTK, Asakasa are still relevant. Many of my albums are like that. It’s just that Egungun Be Careful is the most trending at the moment. It is God that made it so and He told me that He would promote me from generation to generation. It is a big plus for me and I appreciate everybody associating themselves with me”.
