My secret formula to success in music – Kcee (Video)

Nigerian singer Kingsley Okonkwo, popularly known as Kcee, has shared the mindset that has sustained his long and consistent career in the highly competitive Nigerian music industry.

Speaking on an episode of the Selah Meditate podcast, the “Limpopo” crooner explained that his key to longevity lies in refusing to be discouraged by setbacks, opting instead to increase his output.

Kcee stated that unlike some colleagues who “go back to their shell” when a song fails to become a hit, he understands that success often requires persistence.

“I can drop 22 songs, maybe it is the 25th one that will become a hit. I don’t care because consistency is key,” he expressed, adding that dropping more songs inherently increases the chance of scoring a hit.

The singer revealed that despite the struggles and difficult times he has faced in the music industry, they often went unnoticed because he maintains a flamboyant public appearance regardless of his situation.

Kcee also touched on the power of positive manifestation, citing his own life experience alongside his brother, E-Money, as evidence of its impact.

“When me and E-Money were living in Ajegunle, if you asked us where we are living, we will say Ikeja. And we were not lying or pretending, we were dreaming, prophesying into the future,” he recalled. “And that was where we eventually moved to. And we dominated it.”

“I fit drop 22 songs. Maybe na the 25th one go blow.”
