Singer, Adekunle Gold has recounted how he lost an opportunity to another colleague.
The ‘Okay’ crooner revealed that the colleague already has a lot going on and has a lot already.
Sharing his experience via his newsletter obtained by TheNewsGuru, AG Baby as he is fondly called said:”Recently, I did a beautiful pitch for something I wanted to create for my fans, after vying for it for weeks, they came back and told me they had picked another colleague who is absolutely deserving and qualified but that guy has a lot already and I know my pitch was frigging ‘dope’ “.
Speaking further, Adekunle Gold said celebrities are human too and are not immune to feeling bad.
“What? You don’t think celebrities are human, and we get jealous? And we work hard? And it’s not just designers and accolades, that we want things too? We want to grow, we have milestones, we have dreams, desires etc? We feel it all and are immune to nothing.
In life we are told that the sky is big enough for all birds to fly but if you are Nigerian, you know it’s a myth to believe such nonsense. The proverb says one thing but our experience, our hustle, our struggles as a nation remind us every day that if you make it, it will be the greatest miracle of all time.
But let me tell you something, if you carry that poisonous mindset, that the sky is small, that the world is a triangle; that mindset will breed jealousy, hatred, envy and covetousness, all real and very human feelings that even I feel daily but also a massive distraction from the finish line”.
