‘I have signed autographs on many b00.bs’ – Sir Shina Peters
Veteran Afro Juju maestro, Sir Shina Peters has opened up on some of the very weird things fans have done to him in his career.
The
56-year old Ogun State-born musician recently spoke with the SUN
newspaper where he revealed the kind of relationship he shares with his
numerous fans.
In his words: ‘On
stage, I do a lot of crazy things so if a male fan appreciates me with
crisps naira notes, it is no big deal because I have also done a lot for
them. I am very close to my male fans to the extent that we relate as
one family. My female fans love me and that does not mean that I take
advantage of them. I know that indeed they love me because they have
done lots of crazy things to me. They have done a lot of crazy things to
me but that does not mean we are bed-mates. Women love me so much
because I am an artiste that fights for women’s rights…Hmmm, I have
autographed so many b 00.bs’.
On how he spends his day, he said ‘That
depends on my mood. I don’t do anything special. I may either eat or
not. However, I could be going for a show and see a corn seller and ask
my driver to park so I could buy and eat. But one important thing I do
is that I don’t listen to any music on the day of a show because I don’t
want to be influenced by any other music including mine; that helps me
to stay focused’.
