Afrobeats singer, Tiwa Savage, has claimed that poverty is responsible for the huge amount of entertainers Nigeria is churning out.
According to her, the hardship in the country is making young people explore their talents.
Speaking on the ‘Shopping The Sneakers’ podcast, Savage said living in Nigeria is difficult.
She said, “When you come to Nigeria, you will understand why we breed so many superstars. To survive in Nigeria is something else so that’s why the artists that come out of Nigeria are just like hustlers. They are just hustling.”
Nigeria has Africa’s largest movie, music, comedy and fashion industries.
Nollywood is the second largest movie industry in the world.
