T.R - Rapper says show promoters don't respect Nigerian rappers


Top Nigerian rapper T.R has spoken about the lack of respect some show promoters in Nigeria have for rappers.

He said some promoters do not appreciate Nigerian rappers and prefer foreign rappers to them.

"In the past 10 years, there has been a lot of improvement. We have foreign rappers doing collaborations with Nigerian artistes, so that is a plus for the industry. There are however not enough platforms for rappers because there is no chance for rappers to showcase their stuff. So I think we should have an all rap concert with rappers headlining" he said.

Speaking exclusively to Pulse, T.R further spoke on the issue. "Foreign rappers have also headlined main events in Nigeria meaning rap is relevant in Nigeria. Unfortunately we don't give our own acts the same recognition" he further said.

T.R's is getting set to drop two new videos 'Gamusu', and 'Jegede'.
