Popular singer, Lil Kesh has come out to share the reason why he has not been releasing music.

He recently blamed his silence on his bad mental health which has been weighing down in recent times.

According to him, even if he would not like to speak about the specific cause of his poor mental health, he has been there and he definitely knows how it feels.

He added that there are too many people, especially in a difficult year like 2020, who are in a dark place, even if they might not talk much about it.

His words, “To be sincere, I’m going to blame it on bad mental health. So, I normally would not like to share something like this and I would not like to tell anybody the particular cause of my bad mental health but I’ve been there and I know how it feels.

“I know there are a whole lot of people, especially in a difficult year like 2020, in a dark place. And people don’t talk about it so much.”

Keshinro Ololade (born March 14, 1995), known professionally as Lil Kesh, is a Nigerian singer, rapper and songwriter. He rose to fame after releasing the hit single “Shoki”. Lil Kesh was born and raised in Bariga, a suburb of Lagos State.

His career in music began in 2012 when he rapped among his colleagues in Bariga. He released “Lyrically”, a single which became popular at universities in Nigeria. In 2015, he was nominated for Best New Act at the 2015 Nigeria Entertainment Awards.

As a recording artist affiliated with YBNL Nation, Lil Kesh has established his own record label YAGI Records (an acronym for “Young And Getting It”) and is managed by Massive Management.

The versatility and musical style of Lil Kesh is similar to that of Olamide, who raps and sings in his local dialect. However, he was criticized for using too much profanity and for failing to find the right balance in his songs’ lyrics.
