Tracy Melon Defends Artistes Who Flaunt Wealth Online

Tracy Melon has defended musicians who flaunt their success online, saying there is nothing wrong with celebrating achievements publicly.

Speaking during an appearance on Rewind, the Ugandan songbird addressed the criticism celebrities face whenever they post expensive cars, houses, and lavish lifestyles on social media.

According to her, artistes already live publicly, so sharing their achievements with fans should not become an issue.

We woke up one day, all artistes, and we decided to be in your faces. We decided to put our lives out there for you to see. So I believe if you can put your music out there and people see it, why not share a house you have achieved? Why not share such great news with the people who have supported you and enabled you to reach that point?

Tracy Melon understands the conversation better than most.

Back in March, the singer became a hot topic online after unveiling a brand new Mercedes-Benz she received as a gift on International Women’s Day.

Still, she insists there is nothing wrong with publicly enjoying success, especially after years of sacrifice and hustle.

Personally, I do not find it bad. I think it is entirely okay. When you feel like sharing, please share because, at the end of the day, we have to clap for you.

To Tracy Melon, those flashy posts represent more than social media showmanship.

She believes they can also motivate upcoming artistes and fans to dream bigger and work harder for their own goals.

Another thing is that the people who share inspire and motivate us to push more. The public may see it as showbiz, but it is more than that. It is a celebration.
