Speaking in a recent interview with City 105.1 FM, Lagos, the 'Monalisa' crooner said he is an exception, arguing that his talent is undeniable despite being from a rich home. 'Nigerians like rich-shaming. It's not limited to just the music industry. Once they feel like you have an edge... It's funny because rich kids don't have an edge.
The Interviewer asked: 'Did you ever experience that?' Lojay replied: 'I'm undeniably talented. They can't try that with me. Let them challenge me on the mic. 'Mine was an inevitable situation. I heard myself before I decided to be an artist. I didn’t deceive myself. I have never done payola. My parents didn't use their wealth to influence people to accept my music. My rich background has not influenced my career positively.
