Kenyan singer Willy Paul has once again accused his fellow artists of being jealous of his music. In a post through his social media, the Njiwa hitmaker claimed that despite releasing an album called 'SongsofSolomon', Kenyan musicians refused to support him because they are jealous.
The singer alluded that artists from other countries such as Tanzania and Nigeria are doing much better than Kenya's musicians due to lack of support.
"Kenyan artist wakona wivu moja safi.. if you do something nice while alive they ignore lol.. alafu ukikufa ndio kila mtu anajua kuku post ati mara ooh he was a very talented young man bla bla bla.. mimi nikikufa ghasia asijaribu kunipost ama nita fufuka nimfinye balls ala! "

Kwa wale few artists wame support the album big up.. Kwa wale wanajifanya hawaoni juu ya wivu pia big up.. corona iishe tupatane kwa ground ala!!" Said the singer.
In July this year, during an interview with comedian Jalang'o, Willy Paul claimed that he was fighting powerful people who wanted to see him fail in the music industry. Speaking about his exit from the gospel industry, the singer stated that he could not put up with the challenges that almost ended his music career despite having a good relationship with God.

"God and I have not split, I'm still his son. But the thing is, the same God that blesses Sauti Sol, Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, and even Chris Brown is the same God that blesses gospel artistes. So even before I made up my mind to go this route, I was facing a lot of challenges in the gospel industry. I don't want to mention names but the people in the gospel industry did so much to me. There's that feeling where you haven't done anything to anyone but they just want to see you fail," he opened up.
"These guys were so against me that they protested against my music being played on several radio stations like two or three of them. There was a time I was solely depending on music for survival, to cater to my mom's bills and mine. But these people were so heartless they didn't care," he said.
