Nigerian young singer, Qing Madi (Chimamanda Pearl Chukwuma) has cried out to Nigerians over some of the challenges she faces as a female artists.

She said: “I think the music industry is not the best for women in terms of protecting women, loving women in general.”

“Women have to do twice as much work as their male counterparts. Women are oftentimes criticised for nothing. But they don’t do that to the men.”

“The men have the right to do whatever they like, but for the women, society just wants to box women so much.

“I go through that, which is crazy because I’m 19. So what do you want me to do? Women never get a break. So I’m super proud of being a female artist in Nigeria.”

“And I’m super proud of every female artist in Nigeria because it takes a lot to be one. It’s not easy.”
