Lil Pazo likened the music industry to a lake, emphasizing the importance of seizing opportunities when they arise.
"The music industry is like a lake; when you get a chance to fish from it, you should do so. Afterward, give others the chance to explore this vast field,"
he remarked. This metaphor highlights his realistic understanding of the competitive nature of showbiz and his willingness to adapt if things don’t go according to plan.
Despite his backup plan, Lil Pazo remains optimistic about his musical journey. Riding high on the success of "Nkudi," he has announced plans for the "Nkuudi Festival," slated for August 18, 2024.
