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
