Popular Nigerian singer Joeboy, known for his hit single Alcohol, has shared thoughtful advice urging people to be cautious about the unrealistic standards often portrayed on social media. In a society increasingly influenced by digital platforms, the artist’s words serve as a timely reminder to approach online content with a discerning eye.
Joeboy pointed out that much of what is seen online is curated and, at times, manipulated to project an illusion of perfection that doesn’t necessarily reflect real life. He encouraged Nigerians and his global fanbase to resist the temptation of comparing their lives to the idealized images and narratives presented on social media.
In a powerful statement on his social media page, the singer wrote, “Better don’t let social media define your standards, people lie, a lot.”
This message resonates with many who often feel pressured by the unattainable ideals perpetuated online. Joeboy’s advice reminds everyone to prioritize authenticity and self-worth over the fleeting validation of likes and shares.
