Nigerian artist Slimcase has called on Afrobeats musicians to ease up on releasing too many songs and albums, citing that the constant flow of new music is diminishing the genre’s appeal.

In post on Instagram, he wrote, “Too many songs, too many albums. Una too dey put una self for pressure for this Niger sha. Take a chill pill and be like Rihanna. Do other things and come back give us a fresh vibe.”

Slimcase stressed that the rapid pace is causing the music to lose its excitement, saying, “Your sounds are getting boring cus dem be coming too much in a year. Every day every seconds singles and albums dey killi Afrobeats gradually, it’s not fun anymore.”

He also mentioned his own approach, revealing, “I owe dem a song this year and that’s it. It’s only God that is new every morning.”
