Nigerian singer Young Jonn has revealed that his journey into the music industry was largely unplanned. In a recent interview with Revolt, he shared that becoming an artist was not part of his original career trajectory. Instead, he described how life led him to this path unexpectedly.
Young Jonn, who initially made his mark as a producer, explained the challenges he faced during his transition to becoming an artist. He emphasized that the shift involved a significant learning curve, as it required adapting to a completely different set of demands and dynamics in the music industry.
Reflecting on this transition, Jonn noted that adjusting to the role of an artist has been a complex process. Despite the hurdles, he feels that he is gradually mastering the new aspects of his career, though it has required considerable effort and patience.
During his early career, Jonn drew inspiration from prominent figures in the Nigerian music scene, including Olamide, Kizz Daniel, and Lil Kesh. These artists played a significant role in motivating him as he navigated his new path in the industry.
Young Jonn’s early career saw him collaborating with Olamide’s YBNL Nation, where he produced several tracks for Lil Kesh and other artists associated with the label. This experience was instrumental in shaping his career and laying the groundwork for his eventual success as an artist.
