“I Didn’t Choose Music Because of Talent or Money” – Sanny Boy Opens Up in Emotional Interview

In a world where many chase music for fame, fortune, and clout, Benue-born rising star Sanny Boy — real name Lanen Isaiah — is charting a different path. In a heart-to-heart interview at Super Success Entertainment Studio, conducted by Naijahotvibez NG’s CEO King David Oryiman Mson, Sanny Boy laid his soul bare, revealing that his decision to do music wasn’t influenced by money or talent — but by the healing power of sound.

“I didn’t choose music because of talent or money. I chose it because of the joy it brings me,” he said with emotion in his voice. “Music has been my healing, my safe space. It’s helped me survive and stay strong through the many challenges life throws my way.”

The Story Behind the Sound

Sanny Boy isn’t your everyday artist chasing streams and spotlight — he’s a young man who turned to music as a refuge from the storms of life. As he explained during the interview, music is not a performance for him; it is therapy.

“I’m going through a lot,” he admitted, “and music is my therapy, my escape, and my strength. So whenever I share a song with you, please listen. Even if it’s not your style, know that there’s a story behind it — my story.”

This powerful message has resonated with fans across the Middle Belt and beyond, especially with the release of his most recent single, “Nenge Ase” — a beautiful, soulful piece that has started to gather thousands of streams across Spotify, Boomplay, Apple Music, and other digital platforms.

The track “Nenge Ase”, which means “Look At Me” in Tiv, is more than a song — it’s a cry for attention, love, and understanding from a young man who’s felt invisible in the crowd. The lyrics are raw, the beat is simple but powerful, and the delivery? Straight from the heart.

Since its release, the song has received massive support from fans who say they connect with Sanny Boy’s vulnerability and authenticity. It’s not every day you find an artist who dares to speak about pain so openly — especially in an industry that often rewards bravado over vulnerability.

The Road Ahead: Album & A Makurdi Show

But Sanny Boy isn’t stopping at one emotional hit. He revealed during the interview that he is currently working on a full-length album, a project he promises will reflect more deeply on his personal journey, struggles, faith, and hope.

Even more exciting, Sanny Boy also announced plans to host a major live concert in Makurdi, Benue State, before the year runs out. The concert, which is already generating buzz among fans and music lovers, is expected to feature other rising stars and provide a platform for true, raw talent from the Middle Belt.

“I want to bring something different to Makurdi — not just another show, but an experience,” Sanny Boy added. “Something real, something heartfelt. I want people to leave that night feeling seen, heard, and inspired.”

What makes Sanny Boy truly stand out isn’t just his music — it’s his message. He’s become a symbol of what it means to stay true to oneself in the face of struggle. Through his honesty, he’s giving voice to countless young people who are silently fighting their own battles.

For many fans, Sanny Boy represents hope — proof that no matter how hard life gets, there’s always a way to rise, to heal, and to inspire others.
