Timi Dakolo Advocates for Authenticity in Music Creation

In a recent podcast, renowned singer Timi Dakolo shared his belief that great artistry stems from a personal connection to the music.

“For me, I have a rule that you make music for yourself because the food you want to give someone, you must be able to enjoy it yourself,” he said.

Dakolo, known for his deep voice and poignant lyrics, emphasized the importance of creating music that he personally enjoys, trusting that audiences will eventually appreciate it too.

He stressed the value of artistic authenticity, stating, “You are the first person to play it, the idea is yours, the motivation was yours, and the core of it was presented to you, so the first person that encounters that idea is you.”

He argued that making music solely for others misses the essence of true artistry. “If you’re doing it for people, then you are missing the whole point.

A good product convinces the people. It speaks louder than asking people to come and hear your music. If the product is good, people will embrace it.”
