Alien Skin has declared himself the highest-earning and most booked artist over the past three years, while also hinting that he could be quitting music.
In a series of statements, Alien Skin challenged fellow artists to a direct comparison of earnings, insisting that no one matches his financial success over the past three years.
We post receipt books for the past three years, ever since I started singing, and see which artist has made more money than me.
Alien Skin further claimed that he has been the most booked artist during this period, suggesting that his dominance could be the reason behind growing jealousy from other musicians.
He also hinted that his association with the President may have contributed to the resentment he faces within the industry.
Alien Skin went on to declare that he has already achieved enough in his career to secure his family’s future.
I have sang enough songs to cover my family’s legacy.
His remarks come shortly after a recent incident where he was arrested last Friday over alleged traffic violations alongside members of his crew. He was, however, released shortly after, reportedly with the assistance of Commissioner Hellen Seku.
Alien Skin believes the arrest was not coincidental, pointing fingers at what he describes as “enemies” within the music industry who are working against him.
Despite the challenges, the singer maintains that he remains mentally strong and unfazed by the pressure.
For me, the most challenging moments make me the best. You’ve never heard me blame my struggles on my work slowing down, but every time I try to reach somewhere, people fight me.
