Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji, 34, recently reaffirmed her interest in going further with her music career despite the criticisms that have trailed it so far.<\/p>\n
She told Olisa Adibua when she was featured on his online programme, The Truth where she disclosed that the decision to sing was a strategy her management team (as at then) had thought would help her make some money while still continuing as an actress.<\/p>\n
\u2018I didn\u2019t decide to sing all by myself. It was decided for me because I was being managed by somebody who thought it would be a good idea. It was a business strategy. I\u2019ve always said when you are not ready for something don\u2019t go into it,\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n
She described the venture as successful, adding that it fetched her some money and opened doors in neighbouring countries like Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u2018I had royalties and I got paid upfront as well. It was a success although Nigeria wasn\u2019t the target. It was an album I did for a record company and it sold everywhere they wanted to sell.\u2019<\/p>\n
She reiterated her plans to sing again soon, saying however that it is a decision that will be taken on her own terms.<\/p>\n
\u2018Definitely, I will do it again but I will do my own kind of song. I\u2019m a soul singer.\u2019 Her debut album, One Logologo Line released in 2004\/2005 featured the popular track, No More.<\/p>\n
