Singer Young Jonn has expressed his disappointment regarding his exclusion from discussions about the best musicians in the country. He articulated his feelings, noting that despite his talent and contributions to the music scene, he often finds himself overlooked in these conversations.
Young Jonn, known for his hit song “Dada,” explained that one of the reasons for his exclusion is rooted in his career beginnings. He started off as a producer before transitioning to a singing career, which he believes has led to some people not fully recognizing his abilities as an artist. This background, he feels, contributes to a perception that diminishes his status among the top musicians in the industry.
Despite this, Young Jonn remains confident in his talent and the impact of his work. He stated emphatically that, in time, the true measure of musical greatness will become clear. “Time will reveal those who are truly the best musicians,” he asserted, suggesting that recognition and respect are ultimately earned through consistent quality and contributions to the music landscape. His determination to prove himself reflects a belief that his artistry will eventually be acknowledged and celebrated alongside his peers.
On his X handle, Young Jonn expressed his frustration about being excluded from discussions about the best musicians, writing, “I see how you all leave me out of conversations prolly cos I started out as a producer. Continue! Time will tell!” This statement underscores his awareness of the biases that can arise from one’s career trajectory, particularly his transition from a producer to a performing artist.
Young Jonn initially gained recognition as one of the in-house producers for YBNL Nation, where he was instrumental in creating hit songs for prominent artists such as Lil Kesh and Olamide. His production skills played a significant role in shaping the label’s sound during his tenure. After leaving YBNL, he launched his singing career under Chocolate City, a move that marked a new chapter in his musical journey.
Since then, Young Jonn has released numerous hit songs that have resonated with audiences, including popular tracks like “Dada,” “Xtra Cool,” “Big Big Things,” “Bahamas,” and “Stronger.” His ability to blend catchy melodies with relatable lyrics has helped him carve out a distinct niche in the Nigerian music scene.
In addition to his musical achievements, Young Jonn’s comments reflect a broader conversation about recognition in the industry, particularly for artists who have transitioned from behind-the-scenes roles to the forefront. He remains optimistic, believing that over time, the music community will recognize true talent, regardless of how an artist started their career.
