• Navio says criticism from untalented industry figures still affects him personally.
• The rapper revealed he recently dealt with someone he believes should have stopped pursuing music years ago.
• Navio believes some critics should abandon music careers entirely and explore other options like farming.

Rapper Navio has opened up about how criticism from certain people in the industry affects him, saying he finds it ironic that some of his biggest critics are people he believes lack talent.

Speaking on the Nothing Serious Podcast hosted by Sabrina Agasha, Navio revealed that last year he encountered a situation with someone he believes should have stopped pursuing music a long time ago.

“Last year I experienced a situation with someone who should have stopped at the high school talent search in high school but forgot and kept on going,” he said.

The veteran rapper explained that despite being in the industry for more than two decades, criticism still gets personal because he feels some of the people attacking him haven’t achieved enough to speak on his craft.

According to Navio, there are levels in the music business and not everyone criticizing established artists is qualified to do so.

He added that after dominating the music scene for over 25 years, he believes some of the people constantly criticizing him should consider doing something else entirely, including farming, instead of forcing careers in music.
