Nigerian musician, Korede Bello has shared a profound introspective message to address concerns by fans about his relative lack of public visibility.
In an Instagram post on Sunday, March 9 and accompanied by Carlos Cipa’s instrumental piece The Place Where They Go, Korede Bello revealed the importance of inner serenity and his path of self-discovery amidst fame.
Responding to frequent concerns about his whereabouts, the singer stated, “Whenever I hear or see comments like ‘Where have you been?’ I’m always usually kind of surprised. Why? Because I’ve been here all along, with me, myself and I.”
He emphasized the value of self-awareness over acceptance from others, adding, “I’m grateful that I don’t have to ask myself ‘Korede, where are you?’ For it is better for the world to ask ‘Where have you been’ than for you to ask yourself ‘Who am I…. where am I?’”
Korede also reflected on the often-overlooked struggles of fame, stressing the need for one to truly reflect on himself or herself.
“Don’t you know that you can be extremely rich and famous but lost inside your mind? I have come to realize that the more you connect with yourself the less the world connects with you.”
The ‘Godwin’ singer acknowledged that deep self-reflection often leads to noticeable changes in one’s outlook and interactions.
“You think different, you act different because you are different. They might even say ‘Who do you think you are?’ But this hero’s journey is so necessary because you cannot truly stand out until you stand out and become outstanding,” he said.
