Nigerian rapper and singer Vector Tha Viper says his collaboration with Goodgirl LA on the track Early Momo once helped a patient in a psychiatric facility overcome depression.

Speaking on a recent episode of The Honest Bunch podcast, the “King Kong” hitmaker emphasized that the true measure of musical achievement isn’t chart positions but the positive influence it can have on listeners’ lives.

“I can tell when people are going through a tough time because certain records come up on streams. Like the record with Seyi Vibez, ‘Mercy.’ When it pops up, you will know that people have started overthinking. And that is what music should really be. It should be spread across in such a way that whatever people are going through, they find the music to fit that purpose.

“Now, how do you say that is not successful because that’s not the chart? I released Early Momo and I got a message from a psychiatric home that said it helped somebody that was depressed… That’s a successful moment in somebody else’s life that I didn’t even intend to. So, success has different definitions,” Vector explained.
