Dance Hall artiste, Chinagorom Onuoha, better known as African China, who recently opened a unisex salon in Festac, Lagos, says the reason behind the new business, is to take his place among moguls like businessman Aliko Dangote and American rapper Jay Z.
The singer noted that he had done his research before deciding to embrace the initiative after being off the music radar for a long while.
have already done. This is one business I have done before, so I have taken my time and done my research. Right now, I can
say everything is on point and we are open to clients,” he stated.
On his decision to keep a low profile prior to this time, the artiste revealed that he is taking his time to do works that will remain ever green.
“My reason is that I’m taking my time to do what will last a lifetime. I don’t want to do something that after some years I will start regretting. Anything worth doing is worth doing well,” the ‘Mr President’ crooner said.
He also revealed the reason he has been going tough on Nigerian leaders in his songs. According to him, past administrations have not lived up to their bidding, “So, I needed to talk to them. That is because we all cannot keep quiet. They lie too much.”
He also noted that the reason he has not gone into Artiste Management like his other colleagues, is due to the fact that he is yet to see humble and good artistes to work with.
African China, known for his songs and how they relate with the situation of the country, received his first award at the Nigerian International Song Festival before releasing his debut album “Crisis” that later went on to win the Best Reggae/ Reggae dancehall at the Fanta Fame musical award 2003 merit award.
