Ghanaian rapper, Okyeame Kwame has urged the youth not to follow the advice of others. The musician believes that the lives of the youth become limited if the unquestioningly heed to advice.
In an interview with Kwame Dadzie on Joy Prime, the ‘Yeeko’ hitmaker boldly stated that the youth should not listen to advice because those who offer advice do so out of fear for the person being advised.
“Don’t listen to advice. I beg you, young people. Because after listening to advice over the years, look at where we are.
What I am saying is nothing new. If you pay attention, if you meditate on your thoughts you will see that what I am saying is what you know already,” he noted.
He asserted that it is advisable to listen to the voice of God, as the voice of the body often tempts individuals towards indulgence and shortcuts, while the voice of God encourages love, meeting the right people, making sacrifices, and being in control of one’s actions.
“The voice of the body wants you to overeat, be lazy, cheat your boss, and take shortcuts. It pushes you to do things quickly without putting in much effort.
“On the other hand, the voice of God within you wants you to love, connect with the right individuals, make sacrifices, and discipline your body. It wants you to emulate figures like Christ, Mohammed, or any other inspiring role model. Listen to that voice of God,” he advised.
