Waje Dismisses The “Underrated Artist” Label, Stressing The Power Of Words In The Music Industry
Renowned Nigerian singer, Waje, made it plain in a recent podcast session that she objects to the term “underrated artist.” The name that many fans and social media users have assigned to her is not a compliment, despite her notable achievements and talent within the music field.
This position clarifies the larger discussion among artists over self-perception and acknowledgment. Waje was uncomfortable with the underrated tag when she was on the Secrets Behind the Scenes podcast. She maintained that the term actually had a negative connotation, despite the fact that it is frequently used to acknowledge and recognize underappreciated ability.
Waje’s remarks are indicative of an increasing trend among artists who are reassessing what it means to be successful and well-known in a constantly changing field. Her viewpoint stimulates a more in-depth conversation about the effects of labels and the value of both individual and group recognition in the arts.
Waje’s primary argument against being undervalued is based on the expressive power of language. “Words have power,” she said, noting that even well-meaning remarks have the ability to paint an artist’s career in a way that is inconsistent with their own definition of success.
Waje’s observation challenges her audience to reevaluate how they talk about and support artists, implying that even well-intended praise can have unexpected repercussions.
