Talented upcoming Kogi born artist, Abdullahi Yahaya, popular known as Young Tizee, has unveiled the tracks for his new album, ‘Money Matter’.
The 7-track album, which was release during weekend featured Abuja base artists like Simple Boy, Sturna boy and young money.
Speaking during the unveiling at the Summit Villa hotel, Young Tizee said Nigeria music is too competitive, but that should not be his problem.
“The album was originally scheduled for launch towards ending of October, but I decided to delay the release because of the mood of the nation then. Even up till now, the mood is not yet clear in some parts of the country and that is very bad.”
Speaking on the album, Young Tizee said 2020 is marred with unexpected virus that disorganized everything, including music industry in Nigeria and across the globe.
“I recorded the album during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is a bit difficult. I decided to move to Kaduna State to do the recording because only few studio do recording and the price giving for recording can not be acceptable to upcoming musician,” he said.
He said due to covid-19, things were quite expensive and him will not blame anyone for increasing price for anything, thanking God who helped him to come through thick and thin.
“It is not easy to put a lot effort to achieve this remarkable achievement. Some of my friends do tell me that Young, how can you drop this despite the whole activities is shut down in Nigeria? You know that I am always optimistic in whatever I am doing. Always focus and I told them that Covid-19 is not endemic, but a pandemic that will soon be over.
