music waves for sometime after he announced that his latest project, ‘Insulin,’ would be his last
album released in Nigeria .
Some believed the veteran rap artiste was about to hang his boot and retire from music .
However, while chatting with Saturday Beats, Mode 9 said that he was sticking to his decision and that he was no longer releasing albums on the shores of Nigeria .
He also debunked insinuations that he was retiring from music .
He said, “After this last album, ‘Insulin,’ I am done releasing albums in Nigeria . I purposely did not make too much noise about this album, I just released it and those who appreciate it have been giving me positive feedback. I don’t know if I would release more albums but I am very certain that I would not release any other
album in Nigeria . I can release my album somewhere else but not here in Nigeria .
“I have not given up on Nigeria but did Nigerians not give up on me? Things are not like they were about seven years ago. Things are getting too difficult, so I decided to release this ‘Insulin’ album and I am done here. I already have my next chapter planned out. I am not retiring from music and Nigerians should not worry about me. I have left a lot of materials for them and they can always go and buy and listen to them. I am happy this last album made an incredible impact especially on my core fan base. This is the most airplay I have got in a while ever since I became an independent artiste. It is always good to step aside when the ovation is loudest.
