  • If my daughter tells me she wants to be a stripper, it’s her life- Timaya

    If my daughter tells me she wants to be a stripper, it’s her life- Timaya

    Timaya is one Nigerian singer who doesn’t hesitate to share his views about issues that are dear to him.

    The ‘Plantain boy’ singer known for his unique dancehall sound has been in the music industry for over 10 years.

    In a recent chat with Vibesng, the outspoken entertainer was asked If he would allow his daughter to do music, he said: “Whatever makes her happy, 10 or 20 years down the line. If today she tells me daddy I want to be a stripper, that’s her life. I brought her into this world. I just need to make her understand what is good and bad, what is right and wrong. Sometimes what you think is wrong for the child can be good for the child. Imagine, my father wanted me to be a banker, how? That’s not what I wanted to be. I followed my dream. Just imagine if my parents had stopped me. This music that they never wanted me to do is what is taking the whole family somewhere, so, I think I should allow my daughter express herself”.

     

    In 2012, Timaya released a song called ‘Plantain boy’ which details how he sold plantain before he hugged stardom.

    Reacting to a question posed to him about the song, Timaya said:”I wouldn’t be talking about it if I didn’t do it. Of course, I sold plantain. From Monday to Fridays I’d go to school, on Saturday mornings my mother would shade a lot of plantains. The whole bunch would be like N1,200 which is like N40 each in smaller bunches. I guess that’s what really affected my height. Imagine carrying that worth of plantain on your head. If you’re blessed sometimes you could see a buyer that would just buy everything. I think I’m happy I did; very happy I did”.

     

    The award winning singer was queried on the biggest sacrifice he has ever made for his music career, he said: “I don’t see anything as the biggest sacrifice. When my father told me he’s going to disown me if I kept doing music, I didn’t care, because my music was more important. He’s not alive today but the music is still there. It’s not that I don’t love my dad, but I can do everything for my career. There’s no biggest sacrifice”.
