Nigerian rapper Vector Tha Viper has shared a powerful story about the unexpected impact of his music, revealing that his soulful track “Early Momo,” featuring Goodgirl LA, helped lift someone out of depression in a psychiatric facility.
Speaking on a recent episode of The Honest Bunch podcast, Vector emphasized that true musical success isn’t just about topping charts, it’s about touching lives.
“I released ‘Early Momo’ and I got a message from a psychiatric home that said it helped somebody that was depressed… That’s a successful moment in somebody else’s life that I didn’t even intend to,” he said.
The rapper, known for his introspective lyrics and sharp delivery, also pointed to another track, “Mercy” with Seyi Vibez, as an example of how music can reflect emotional states.
According to Vector, spikes in streams of certain songs often signal that listeners are grappling with heavy thoughts.
“When it pops up, you will know that people have started overthinking. And that is what music should really be,” he explained.
“It should be spread across in such a way that whatever people are going through, they find the music to fit that purpose.”
