People advised me to boycott VGMA but I didn't mind them – King Promise

According to him, he still showed up every year for his fans because he realized that the fault was not from them.

King Promise believes he has a higher calling, which is to stay constant in music production. His music speaks to the soul of listeners and inspires them for this, he will not give up.

"I always get going regardless. I feel like I have a higher calling than just letting things get to me because a lot of people listen to me and it brings joy into their lives. Put a smile on their faces, it makes them feel good and lifts them up when they are down.

"That is like a higher calling. In 2019, I won at VGMA and since then I've not won until this year, The years I hadn't won, I was still going hard...I just kept going, just kept dropping music. It is funny when those things happen, I always come back with a smash,"

King Promise added that he is not moved by what critics do or say but focuses on his music career.
