Through the exposure offered by the show Nawukere was able to enjoy more opportunities to perform around the country, but he also was confronted with doubts and even criticism. Online, some questioned his performances during the show while the others simply just posted rude comments about his music.
The rapper opens up about the online bullying with songs, such as Fool and All Eyes on Me, in which he expresses his attitude and his life changes after the show propelled him to fame.
"All eyes on me; the darkness around me and I fight among the chaos; which is like cholera spreading so fast," he sings.
"The surface seems like glorious; but it's in fact falling into an abyss. The eyes are blinded; which is the core of the problem," he raps in the song Fool.
"I had a hectic schedule after the show. I just stayed at home once a week and was flying the rest of the time. I was angry about the bullying, but I knew the best way to fight back is through my music," says Nawukere, who has nearly 3 million followers on Sina Weibo, a popular social media platform.
