An Austrian-Nigerian singer Rose May Alaba delves into the challenges she encounters as the sister of Real Madrid star David Alaba.
Rose May shared her insights exclusively with 88.5 UFM, shedding light on the misconceptions surrounding her family.
According to Rose, there's a prevalent belief that her family possesses unlimited wealth, and due to her surname's association with a renowned football player, they are often perceived as a financial resource.
She emphasized the difficulty in finding authentic individuals, as many assume they lack nothing.
In her own words:
“To be honest, the hustle is real. Everybody wants to make money. And I feel like once people hear my last name because it’s connected to a big soccer player which is my brother [David Alaba], they see us as a bank. They think we grow money on trees. But that is not the case.
“It’s hard to find genuine people who see the vision. And I feel like you always have to believe in yourself first for them to actually help you.”
