Reggae/highlife musician Epixode has expressed his displeasure over the vile comments aimed at musicians. He pointed out that one’s craft can be deeply affected by the constant negativity thrown in their path.
Epixode took to his Facebook to share his sentiments. He wrote, “The diss. The insults. The comparison is so ill-mannered. Let’s celebrate ourselves because all we have achieved we did by ourselves. Individually we are our own labels, our own sony music universals. But still, we rock shoulders with artistes on those labels.”
He added that although everyone can have a say does not mean you should pass offensive and degrading comments.
Epixode continued, “Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but those opinions shouldn’t water down the hard work of the others. It’s just sad that we turn to be the Judas to our own Jesus. What have you done to support this artiste you are disrespecting?
“The disrespect is too much. Sometimes I wish these people know what it takes to write a simple line in a song, not to talk of adding melody to create a 3min song. Hoping to make it a hit. Respect and manners. We all need each other!”
