“I paid someone 100,000 to help boost my account when I was doing music, but nothing changed.” — Lasisi Elenu
Have you ever wondered what it feels like to suddenly become a viral sensation on social media? Well, Nosa Afolabi popularly known as Lasisi Elenu had that exact experience and shared his wild journey in a recent interview with Chude.
It all began when he decided to take a peek at Twitter, where he was greeted by a surprising sight – his mentions were on fire. With curiosity piqued, he immediately called his brother and showed him the extraordinary situation that had unfolded on the platform. This was the first time for Lasisi Elenu, a moment where he felt “hot” online.
Lasisi shares how in the early days even as a budding musician, he and his peers had to work tirelessly to grow their online presence. He recalled a time when he handed over 100,000 Naira to someone who promised to boost his social media profile. Back then, they were “running” for every follower. But the unexpected experience was different; it was an unexpected surge of organic growth. It was like tasting the sweet fruits of “Organism” for the first time.
The realization hit Lasisi when he logged into his social media accounts. He was taken aback by the sheer number of views his old videos received. Videos he had posted just a week earlier now had over 116,000 views, a remarkable increase. Lasisi was left pondering, “Where did all these viewers come from? Who were they, and what did they want from him?”
