Nigerian singer, Spyro has sent a valuable message and advice to upcoming artists looking to make it to the limelight.

So if you like be signed by the biggest label/ artiste in the world, it’s still no guarantee for success o Labels/Big names will only aid what you already “CARRY”
“So if you already carry a failure mentality that everything must be done for you/handed to you just because you got the talent, well they will help amplify you to be a massive failure and vice versa. Just so you know too, your talent without diligence and hard work will FAIL YOU. In fact, these days a talentless person with focus, diligence & hard work gets the Stop building castles in the air waiting for labels/people and start investing in YOU”

He emphasized that success in the music industry requires dedication, hard work, and a positive mindset. His heartfelt message has resonated with many aspiring artists who look up to him as a role model.
