Otile Brown Dissapointed With Fans After Release Of His Album
Kenyan musician Otile Brown, recently opened up about his latest album, “Grace.” In a March 26th interview with a local media outlet, Brown discussed factors that might have impacted the album’s performance.
High Hopes, Evolving Industry
Brown acknowledged his initial optimism for “Grace,” but also recognized the changing landscape of the music industry. He pointed to a rise in online personalities like bloggers, vloggers, and TikTok stars, contrasting it with the focus on music itself when he debuted.
“To be honest, it wasn’t what I expected,” Brown said. “I had high hopes, but there’s a lot going on in the industry these days. There are more distractions – not like when I released my first album years ago. Back then, it was all about the music and the artist. Now, there are bloggers, vloggers, even TikTok stars, everywhere.”
Before the release of his album, Otile Brown said he would stop doing music if his then upcoming album would flop.
The musician now claims that Tik-Tok has turned artists into influencers.
