Nigerian music producer Sess, known for his work with top artist Falz, has shared candid insights into the often-overlooked challenges faced by immigrants living in the United Kingdom. In a recent interview, the hitmaker opened up about the hidden limitations that immigrants, including himself, encounter while trying to navigate life in the UK.
Sess highlighted that while the UK is seen as a land of opportunity, there are systemic obstacles that make it difficult for immigrants to thrive. He spoke of the struggle to secure long-term stability and opportunities in a foreign land, mentioning the complexities of immigration laws, the challenges in gaining recognition in creative industries, and the financial burden of settling in a new country.
The producer emphasized that even for those with significant talent and international acclaim, like himself, the journey is never without setbacks. “As an immigrant, you always feel like you're constantly proving yourself. It's not just about talent, it's about fitting into a system that was never designed with you in mind,” Sess shared.
His words shed light on the unspoken challenges of living as an immigrant, particularly for creatives trying to make a mark abroad. Despite these hurdles, Sess remains focused on his goals and is determined to use his platform to advocate for more support for immigrants, especially within the UK’s entertainment scene.
His comments have sparked widespread conversations among fellow Nigerian artists, immigrants, and fans, all of whom continue to support Sess as he navigates these limitations while continuing to shape the music industry.
