Afrobeats artist Ruger revealed on the Apple Music program Africa Now that his musical career started in the church choir, where his voice was developed and refined. Despite his vocal prowess, Ruger would rather not display it in his songs, saving that experience for live performances.
The singer emphasized that those who have seen him perform live have had a chance to appreciate his vocals.
According to him, “Only people who have experienced me perform live have had the opportunity to enjoy my vocals. Even in my music, I don’t necessarily show it off.
“My favourite time being Ruger is when I’m performing on stage because I get to do whatever I like with my songs.
“I started from the choir. I know how to sing, especially when it is a song that resonates deeply with me.”
