Pia Pounds was called a bad performer and advised to put more money into vocal lessons and rehearsals rather than concentrating on her looks by music critic Eddie Sendie over the weekend.
“Pia Pounds, you are a terrible performer. You invest a lot of money in your appearance, but my sincere advice is to undergo voice training and rehearse more,” he said in a YouTube interview, criticizing her performance at Sheebah’s concert.
On X (previously Twitter), Pia Pounds answered, letting Sendie know that there might be more to her bad performance than just a lack of skill.
Pia Pounds said that although Sendie’s remarks wounded her, she would accept them as helpful critique and use them to improve as an artist.
“Mzee Sendie, your comment about ‘Nyimba bubi’ hurt me a lot, but I’ll take it as constructive criticism and work on growing as an artist. It’s important to note that many factors can cause an artist to sound bad on stage besides a lack of talent,” she wrote on X.
