And it’s for those three singles that he’s up for nominations in the 2015 Mdundo Music Awards. We caught up with this modern day black Mozart, and he shared his sentiments on the music industry and how his nomination:
How do you feel about your nomination?
It's a surpise because I didn’t even know of the nomination until just now! But I’m happy for the recognition of my hard work.
Do you feel like you deserve the spot on the nomination list?
Yes I do! Not to be corky, but I honestly feel like the effort I put is worth the spot on hip hop’s most downloaded. The fans clearly feel the same seeing that I have three songs on the list.
What’s your advice to artists who’d like to get to where you are?
Quality over quantity; there are artists with an infinite amount of songs but their effort isn’t reciprocated. Why? Because their songs’ quality is s**t! So, work hard, but make sure the quality of every single you dish out is high quality.
Considering the list is determined by downloads, any words for your fans?
I’m happy for the support I’ve had from my fans and hope they keep having the same eye and ear for only the best of music. My fans are truly special and deeply appreciate this fact.
His outstanding ability to paint a picture of his life, background and soul onto a canvass that is music, sees him always swinging a homerun. Keep it Mdundo to find out if Octopizzo takes home the crown for the most downloaded hip hop single!
