Nigerian rapper Remilekun Abdulkhalid Safaru, widely known as Reminisce, has opened up about the challenges of fame, likening it to a “hard drug” that is profoundly intoxicating.
During a recent interview in Lagos, he shared his perspective on the pressures that come with being in the public eye.
“Fame is a hard drug. It’s very intoxicating,” Reminisce remarked, highlighting the complexities of celebrity life. He emphasized his approach to navigating fame, stating that he views those around him as colleagues rather than friends. This mindset, he explained, helps him manage expectations and maintain a level of detachment.
By perceiving people in the industry as colleagues, Reminisce finds it easier to cope with the demands and realities of fame, ensuring that he remains grounded in an often unpredictable environment.
