How TikTok is amplifying my music to global audience – Guchi
Guchi, the fast-rising Nigerian singer, says TikTok is amplifying her music and giving her a unique way to engage with her global audience.
Speaking at a recent event held at the Maison Fahrenheit Hotel in Lagos, Guchi said TikTok helped her to “level the playing field as an independent artiste on the road to global stardom”.
The singer said artistes can make use of the social media platform to “break boundaries and share the uniqueness of Afrobeats” with the world.
Guchi said through TikTok, she has been able to showcase her passion, creativity, and originality to the world without “losing the essence of my Afrobeats roots”.
“I am humbled and grateful for the love and support I have received on TikTok,” she said.
“The platform has allowed me to connect with fans from all over the world, and their creativity never ceases to amaze me.
“TikTok has truly amplified my music and provided me with a unique way to engage with my audience.”
Munya Vomo, content partnerships lead music at TikTok Sub-Saharan Africa, described the platform as a “stage where anyone with talent, passion, and creativity can shine”.
“We are thrilled to see artists like Guchi flourish on TikTok. On Notice Me, as with each of her releases, multitudes of TikTok users, once again, connected with her music by interpreting it through their own content on the platform,” Vomo said.
“Through her music, talent, and engaging content, she embodies the creative spirit of TikTok and continues to leave an indelible mark on the platform’s vibrant community.
“Musicians reside at the heart of TikTok’s vibrant community, and our commitment lies in empowering both established and emerging artists to realise their full potential.
“Our platform offers them a dynamic space to experiment, innovate, and connect with fans like never before.”
In 2021, Guchi released her debut single titled ‘Jennifer’.
She has also put out a plethora of songs to the resounding applause of her ever-growing fan base — most especially on TikTok.

I’m a hardworking businesswoman, more than just Wizkid’s baby mama, says Jada P
American talent manager Jada Pollock, popularly known as Jada P, has asserted that she is far more than just singer Wizkid’s “babymama,” a title often used by the media.
Speaking in a recent interview with BET UK, Jada P lamented that her accomplishments as an entrepreneur and professional in the music industry have been largely overshadowed by her role as the mother of Wizkid’s children.
Jada P highlighted her career achievements, noting that she has managed international artists such as Chris Brown, Wizkid, and Skyla Tyla.
She described herself as a dedicated businesswoman and music manager actively contributing to the growth of the industry.
“When Wizkid won a Grammy, I wrote a statement about how far afrobeat has come. They put the statement out, and the caption was ‘Wizkid baby mama.’ The narrative is not seen as you’re an entrepreneur and hardworking businesswoman. I’m not only a mother but also a manager, who has actively contributed to building a legacy,” she said.
She further emphasised her role in managing top-tier artists, adding, “Some of the artists I have managed are Chris Brown, Wizkid & Skyla Tyla, etc.”

In an Instagram post on Friday, the actress urged her followers to embrace self-worth and resist the pressure of wanting to be liked by everyone.
She cautioned that the constant need for approval often leads to “emotional and spiritual imbalance”.
“Seeking to be liked by all is a sign that you are emotionally and spiritually imbalanced. Some people will hate you because to hate is what gives them joy because they are genetically wicked. So get used to not being liked. 1 John 5:19,” she wrote.
