Nigerian Rapper Remilekun Shafaru aka Reminisce, has highlighted the importance of setting boundaries as an artist.
The rapper, who recently released his seventh musical project, noted that establishing boundaries has helped him maintain a small circle of key people around him.
Fondly called ‘Alaga,’ and ‘Baba Hafusa,’ Reminisce explained that providing charity should not translate to granting people automatic access to your personal life, as it is essential to protect oneself from emotional stress.
“Help people by providing them with a means of livelihood, and let it end there. If they ask for large sums of money, give it to them, but limit your interactions to avoid becoming emotionally attached. It gives you control, and that’s something I learned early in my career.
“Everyone knows that I can give you a huge sum of money, but it doesn’t mean I want you around me. You need to understand that not everyone in your circle genuinely wants you to succeed,” Reminisce shared.
