…says many stars need healing
By Seyi Babalola
Veteran music producer and record executive ID Cabasa has highlighted the necessity of addressing emotional trauma in Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
According to Cabasa, many people in the industry want healing but are typically met with derision and criticism rather than help.
He underlined that persons looking for closure are typically confronted with conflict, as others take sides rather than give understanding.
This, according to him, can lead to individuals suppressing their emotions and struggles, appearing strong on the outside while suffering on the inside.
On his X handle, he wrote: “We need to treat Trauma more in Naija… A lot of people need closure.. unfortunately when they speak up rather than finding healing “People pick sides. We mock/blame/judge people for things they need healing from.
“The entertainment industry has many stars that need healing… But commentators deepen their pain by criticising them rather than showing empathy. So a lot is locked in so as to appear STRONG while dying internally.
“Even when they cry out for help, we gloss over it as entertainment.”
