Money now produces hit songs, no longer good music – Reminisce

Nigerian rapper Reminisce recently shared on the ‘I Said What I Said’ podcast that he believes money now plays a bigger role than good music in determining the success of a hit song.

According to him, the emphasis is more on the budget behind a song rather than its musical quality.

Reminisce said, “The game has now changed to another phase. The phase where you now have to spend money to get hits.

“Money now produces hits not music anymore. That’s the phase we are in now. Whatever song you see [popping], go ask what the marketing budget was. That’s what determines how big a song is. It’s no longer just music anymore.”
