He spoke about why as an artiste he can't open up
"Thank God I have been making money but my emotionally, physically and mentally I have not been a settled. You find that as artistes we do not have people we can open up to. You see like the Papa Dennis incidence last week, God rest his soul in peace. You might find that you're an artiste but there are things going on in your life, not ati financially or anything like that but you can not talk about it because you are an artiste. It is sad that sometimes all we want is to talk to someone to let it out andd feel at peace but then you can't all because of the perspective people have of you.
For a long time, I have learned that I am depressed" Otile Brown added
