Musician and media personality Detacha Sakalaman recently said in an interview that he ended his promising career in music because it wasn’t profitable.
In the world of music, Detacha had gone on an amazing voyage. His compositions and distinct tone immediately drew attention, and soon he was on the verge of notoriety.
However, when Detacha dug deeper into the music business, he started to grasp the unpleasant realities that sometimes accompany artistic undertakings.
Despite his apparent talent and the positive reception his music was receiving, he was finding it more difficult to make ends meet.
But not every musician is as reliant as Bebe Cool, Bobi Wine, Jose Chameleone, Spice Diana, and Sheebah, claims Detacha Sakalaman.
They are now pursuing other ventures as a result of the industry’s lack of profitability.
Apart from letting his supporters and fans down, Detacha’s choice highlighted the often overlooked challenges faced by artists in a profession where monetary gain is the main driver.
Detacha Sakalaman isn’t giving up on his love of music, even after stepping away from the industry.
He is continuously making and sharing art through other platforms, such as his radio broadcasts at Galaxy FM and other interviews.
