Call it hitting the reset button but this young singer does need a career reboot. YQ is looking at restarting his music career as it seems to have plummeted in the last few years.
The Pop singer over the weekend changed his Twitter handle from @YQJUBRIL to @iam_YQ and then unfollowed all his followers on the social network except the late Dagrin (who was until his death, a very close friend).
He then went on a lengthy explanation…

First, let me start by saying a very big thank you to everyone who’s been there from the start, y’all are the reason we’re still here. Next, thank you also to all the principalities/obstacles/haters and co. Y’all are the reason we’re a million times stronger now. Not forgetting of cos d spectators who reside on the fence. Y’all are the reason we’re smarter. Keep looking, d show is just about to start.
In summary, everyone has contributed to the journey in a way or the other. We appreciate you all. Growth and Progress are the new favourite words to me and my team. We therefore decided to evaluate ourselves and chart a way forward. When you sleep and wake up everyday, it’s a fresh start. Unless you don’t see it as one. So we are at this point identifying and taking control of our own fresh start… A new beginning, new possibilities, new energy, new YQ!
They say sometimes you need to go back for you to move forward, so today I unfollowed all my followers on Twitter. And I make a humble appeal to everyone to please accept it as a move to create a better YQ for everyone. As this isn’t cos I got tired of seeing all your tweets, but cos we’re building this house all over again from the foundation for the better. Before you take it personal, remember I unfollowed my siblings, friends, manager, fans as well.
But of course if you still find it offensive after that, please feel free to use the unfollow button too. Big s/o to the only guy I couldn’t find the b*lls to unfollow @Dagrinfimile. In my heart always! GOD bless you all as I welcome y’all to the new beginning!
Nigerian music enthusiasts will tell you that the last few years have been very tough for YQ. After releasing his lukewarm debut ‘I Am YQ‘ under a JV deal with Storm Records and 2koncept Entertainment in August 2012, the Pop singer failed to sustain the hype. 2011 saw the likes of Wizkid, Davido, taking the centre stage.
We’d love to see YQ (who’s pretty talented by the way) bounce back with his new single featuring Olamide.
