REAL REASON FUJI ARTISTES EARN LESS THAN HIP HOP ARTISTES-MURI THUNDER

Fuji star, Muri Thunder, has opened up on why fuji artistes don’t earn as much as their hip hop counterparts. Muri Thunder who only last week dropped a brand new album entitled There Is God declared that the reason was due to poor packaging on the part of majority of fuji musicians. “Fuji is grassroots and we can’t deny that but it has to be packaged and taken to the mainstream. See what the Americans did with hip hop for instance. We need to take fuji to the global mainstream starting from home. We are getting there but a lot still need to be done. “Once we can strike that balance I can assure you that corporate bodies will come scrambling to endorse us because fuji is dynamic; fuji has more substance compared to hip hop and is a strong tool for projecting our Nigerian heritage. “And that is the reason we try to do our things differently. My vision is to take fuji to the mainstream. That is why we are working with Papa Sly Entertainment. a case in point is my collaboration w...
