Muna was talking to Iyabo Aina of Vanguard
Excerpts below
Your experience in the entertainment industry so far?
It has been quite an adventure ,because everything I have done in the industry are things I never thought I could do. And it's quite interesting and the adventure is real. I have been working hard, doing what I know how to do best. It's not about you getting to a particular destination but it's along the way, so I feel satisfied with everything I have done so far
How do you cope, working with different artistes?
Every field you want to get into actually has its challenges. It has issues only you can deal with. So I won t say there are issues, nothing is ever an issue. Winning a beauty pageant was not easy as well, so being in the entertainment industry has challenges and I will say it is not easy but it has been good
You have been silent for quite some time now, what actually happened?
It wasn't too long, and nothing actually happened, I just decided to take a break. It's not everytime you have to release songs, you have to take time out in between. If you continue doing songs all the time, before you know it, you will crash and it is happening to a lot of people right now without them even knowing it. So I had to take some time away to study people, the environment, and the music industry to know those that love and hate me. So that's what I did. I took a step back and it wasn't too long and I also used the time to work on my tracks and work on myself as well. So that is why I decided to keep quiet.
So now that you are back, what are you up to?
Yeah, I have been doing music; I am working on bringing out my new album, and I am shooting a lot of videos of my new track.
There has been controversies about artistes management and as one of the artistes who has been in the music industry for a while, what can you say about artistes management?
Your management has a lot of roles to play in recreating your career. If you are signed with a body that is not quite good for the image you are trying to portray, and they really don't know who you are and how they can train you to fit in with the image they are creating of you, there may be problem. Another thing is, never make a decision when you are desperate because that is a mistake most of us make.
Because we want to make music so much, we want to be out there, we want to be known, and we want to be like 2face, Psquare and D'banj, you now go and sign fifteen years deal, ten years or five years, without really knowing if the management has what it takes to promote you or not. If you sign with a wrong management, you may end up ruining your career.
Why did you decide to go into rap ?
Rap is something I have always wanted to do but I kept asking myself how I could make it work. So, I have to work on myself and I was able to do it well. And its been fun and amazing .
Who are hard to work with in the industry?
To me everybody is cool to work with. It's just that women are tough to work with. I don't know why we are like that, working with the men is easier because they know what they want but with the females, it is different. It only works well when you are friends.
If an upcoming artiste who is not popular, at all, wants to feature you in his or her song, will you accept it?
I don't have any problem being featured on anybody's track at all. That is, if I see that you have a good track and you want a good job done, I will do it.
Why is your record called No Koncience?
Because if you want to make it in life, you need no conscience and if you have conscience you won't do anything. But I don't mean you have to be bad, I mean you have to be able to live your life. If you are too afraid to grab life, it will be hard for you and you will be nowhere to be found. So if you know what is good for you, live life to the fullest because no one knows tomorrow
