‘So what’ singer, Fantana has said in an interview with Zion Felix on the ‘Uncut’ that she is not really bothered by social media trolls about her.
According to her, every artiste gets backlashes from the beginning of their act/career and that she expected every terrible comment coming at her.
She said bad comments are made so the artiste proves the naysayers wrong and also develop a tough skin.
She acknowledged that people don’t get lots of negative comments to make about her because there is obviously nothing negative to be said.
When asked if she heard the comment that she is not a good artiste, she replied, “ yeah but they say that about everybody who starts. They say that about everybody who starts because that’s just what it is”.
“I think they just want me to prove myself and I feel like they trynna see if I have a tough skin as well but I’ve seen that they do that with everyone,” she continued.
Answering whether she took offence to the stage performance comments and the worst comment she has heard, she said, “no, I was expecting it”
“mmm the worst comment, I have too many teeth. I don’t really get bad comments like as bad that will make me cry, no”

“But everybody has their first horrible stage performance. You learn from your mistakes,” she concluded.
