Nigerian musician Cobhams Asuquo explained how blindness affects his career during a Hip TV interview. The One Hit singer works five times harder than other artists because people assume blind performers cannot succeed. He pushes himself to prove that disability does not limit his musical abilities or creative output. Cobhams believes society creates unfair expectations about what visually impaired people can accomplish. His extra effort helps break down harmful beliefs about blindness and talent.

The producer encourages disabled people to accept their conditions rather than hide behind soft language. He prefers calling himself blind instead of using terms like visually impaired or other gentle descriptions. Cobhams thinks honest words help people face reality and build strength from difficult situations. Many individuals disagree with his direct approach to discussing disabilities. The artist feels comfortable using dark humor about his condition when appropriate.

Cobhams considers himself completely blind rather than partially sighted or impaired. He cannot see anything at all and accepts this fact without shame or regret. The musician believes his blindness makes his achievements more meaningful and special. His successful career proves that physical limitations do not prevent artistic excellence. Cobhams embraces his identity and uses it to inspire others facing similar challenges.
