Whitemoney, a former BBNaija contestant and singer, has revealed that he is unaffected by negative remarks on the internet, particularly after he embarked on his music career.
During a recent interview with fellow reality TV personality Doyinsola David, Whitemoney disclosed that he finds it beneficial and stimulating to face online criticism for two main reasons: financial gain and increased interaction.
Doyin ask, “Do you get offended or discouraged by negative comments?”
Whitemoney replied, “To be honest, I’ve said this before and I’d say it again, any person who gets offended by negative comments in this era is someone who does not have a monetised page. Do you understand?”
The vocalist emphasized that he appreciates the involvement that accompanies the critical remarks as it helps him financially and motivates him to improve in his artistry.
He said, “I love those comments because they do two things for me. Number one, It propels me to do better with every release. And number two I love it ’cause it’s engagement. So when you drag me, you feel that you’re being yourself or you’re doing me or hurting me. You’re doing me a favour because all the pages are monetised.”
Whitemoney, amidst laughter, then invited the public to keep slamming him as it brings him financial benefits.
“The more you drag me the more traffic you bring for people to go and view what they’re dragging about. The more I earn a dollar. So I love it, don’t stop dragging me. Never give up, I enjoy it, please drag me,” he said.
