Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile has opened up about why he avoids financially investing in up-and-coming artistes, citing the risks and uncertainties involved.

Speaking on the Adesope Live show, Zlatan explained that his approach to the music industry is strictly business-driven. He wants to ensure financial stability before taking risks with other artistes.

He said, “I will rather go buy a house rather than put money on these artistes that I’m not sure will be successful or not. The reason I am making music is for financial stability. My goal is to be able to be responsible and financially stable. In the beginning of my career, I wasn’t balanced. I suffered from pressure and anxieties.”

Despite this, Zlatan stressed that he remains open to collaborations with emerging talents, noting that he benefitted from similar support when he was starting out in the industry.

The rapper’s candid remarks reflect a pragmatic approach to the entertainment business, highlighting the balance between mentorship, collaboration, and personal financial security.
