Priddy Ugly opens up about his music

Priddy Ugly recently opened up about struggling to recite several of his own songs, a problem that has become common among many musicians.

Responding to RealSihleIV's Twitter (X) post asking netizens which of the Ntja'ka rapper's songs they'd recite without making mistakes, Priddy admitted that he would fail:

"Genuinely, I’d fail. There might not be a single verse or song from my catalogue that I can rap bar for bar without some practice, at least. I only remember some of the songs I perform in my sets, even still - I suffer."
