Overcoming Challenges

In a recent conversation with Afrobeats Intelligence, as reported by Pulse.ng, Tekno revealed that he experienced nine months of voice loss caused by acid reflux following vocal cord surgery. He also navigated a challenging label deal that demotivated his musical pursuits. Despite these challenges, Tekno is poised to make a strong comeback with this album.

With “The More The Better,” Tekno aims to solidify his place as a leading figure in the Afrobeats scene, showcasing his evolution as an artist. This album is not just a collection of songs; it represents Tekno’s resilience and his commitment to his craft, despite the hurdles he has faced in recent years.
