Popular Nigerian singer Ruger has come out to say that the maximum number of genuine friends an artist can have is 2. He recently shared that having legit friends as a musician is very rare, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, relationships in the industry are mainly business-oriented, and people only stick around when you can give something in return.
Ruger added that he wished he had known that nobody is really your friend in the music industry earlier, because he would have reduced his expectations.
His words, “One thing I wished I had known earlier is that no one is your friend in the [music] industry. The most you can have is maybe two genuine friends that stand by you and want to see you grow and even when things are bad, they are with you and making sure that you are good. That’s all, man.
Everything is business. Nobody cares. Just known that everything is business. They are moving around with you because you can offer at that time.
The moment you might not be able to offer anything, a lot of people will switch. Remember, the most friends you can have in the industry might be two or one or none.”
WOW.
