Rapper, Folarin Falana known as Falz has opened up
on one of his biggest fear as a star, since hitting
spotlight.
The rapper, in an episode at MTN project fame, in his
coaching of the contestants, revealed his biggest fear.
“The fear I had about coming into the limelight was
that I would always be in my father’s shadow because
he was out there already as a renowned activist and
lawyer. Being an upcoming artist, headlines,
newspapers, magazine and online publications tagged
me as Femi Falana’s son and I would say “Hello, is that
my stage name?”
“My fear was that how long is this going to last? How
long will people continue to refer to me as his son. But
after so muchFalz1 effort and hard work, I arrived at a
place where they now refer to my dad as Falz’s dad.”
The lawyer turned artiste also revealed that he
accidentally discovered that his faux Yoruba accent
could be popular among fans.
“I think I will say that I stumbled on it because
initially, it was always the music, in early 2014, I was
away on holiday with the family and I decided to
make a short clip. I just decided to be stupid and the
views I got were ridiculous,”
“I was surprised because I was just enjoying myself
and from that point, I picked out what it was about me,
what it was that made me stand out and it was because
I tried to be original.” He concluded
