Nigerian singer Bella Shmurda has revealed that he no longer sees himself as part of the secular music industry.

He explained that he no longer makes music that follows trends.

Featuring in a recent episode of the Afrobeats Intelligence podcast hosted by Joey Akan, Shmurda shared that he has now switched to conscious music.

He said, “At this point, I feel like I’m not in the [secular music] industry anymore. In that sense that I no longer make music that follows trend. I no longer do songs for trends. I don’t think I’m in that space anymore.

“I just want to make music for the reason I want to do it, which is to uplift people’s souls, making people self-conscious and being aware of who they are. And, helping people go through life with my music. And, I don’t really think any of my colleagues want to do that. I can still do trendy songs once in a while. But I feel like I know my space already now. Even if I want to make trendy music, I do that and quickly return to my purpose. And I feel like that’s the balance.”
