Rapper Blaqbonez has expressed deep concern over the damage streaming farm has done to the Nigerian music industry.
He claimed that the damage artists who engaged in stream farming have done to the music industry is “irreversible.”
He stated this while adding his voice to singer Magixx’s recent criticism of artists who inflate the number of plays their song or album receives on a streaming platform using bots or automated systems.
“Y’all faking your numbers I hope you sleep well at night… keep deceiving your family members,” Magixx wrote via X.
Quoting his tweet, Blaqbonez warned that there will be grave consequences for the streaming manipulation in the Nigerian music industry.
He wrote, “The irreversible damage we done to our industry, one day it’d finally come crumbling down, for now let’s keep acting like the charts mean anything more than a showcase of the people who can afford to buy it, its like iTunes in the 2000s all over again.”
