According to Nigerian singer and producer Philip Kayode, also known as Pheelz, music is not a means of getting rich quick, despite what some members of society may think.
He clarified that music has deeper spiritual meanings.
He emphasizes that music is “God” and that it is therapeutic.
Pheelz posted on his X handle, saying, “Music is not a grind.”
It’s not a plan to get rich soon, It’s not a hustle, Life is music.
Music evokes emotions, Music has therapeutic properties. God is music.
The ‘Finesse’ crooner said in another post that the music industry was just one more way for people to try and commercialize divine energy.
“The music and the music business are 2 different frequencies to me,” he stated in his letter. The attempt by man to commercialize the energy of God is the music industry. God is the music itself.
