An Afrobeats star is calling on fans drowning in their feelings to reach out. Singer Oxlade took to social media to tackle mental health stigma head-on, telling his followers that overwhelming struggles are a reason to talk to someone, not a reason to give up. He framed survival as only possible if you are still alive to tell your own story later.
He directly pleaded with people not to take their own lives, calling that act selfish and a deep hurt to loved ones left behind. Oxlade mentioned getting some personal news that shook him, adding a raw request to his brothers not to die on him because he lacks the strength to handle another loss. His overall message insisted that dark times are temporary and that support exists for those willing to seek it out, encouraging open conversation as a vital step.
