• Cysto Panda said he’d only collaborate with Cindy Sanyu if she recognizes him as an artist.
• He recalled Cindy previously saying she couldn’t work with him because she didn’t consider him an artist.
• The singer said the criticism motivated him to improve and encouraged others to use criticism as fuel for growth.

Singer Cysto Panda has revealed that he would only consider collaborating with Cindy Sanyu if she first acknowledged him as a fellow artist.

Speaking during an interview on Galaxy TV, Cysto Panda recalled a past interview in which Cindy allegedly stated that she did not consider him an artist, adding that she therefore couldn’t work with him.

“She was on an interview one time and she shared that I’m not an artist and she can’t work with me,” he said.

Despite the remarks, Cysto Panda said he holds no grudge against the singer and actually understands where she was coming from.

According to him, if Cindy genuinely believed he wasn’t good enough at the time, then it became his responsibility to improve his craft rather than dwell on the criticism.

He explained that if she were to approach him now for a collaboration, it would be a sign that he has grown musically and earned recognition through hard work.

“If she said those words because I wasn’t good enough and now wakes up to say that let’s work together, it’d mean that I’ve reached somewhere and that would empower me,” he said.

The singer also encouraged fellow artists and the public not to view criticism as something negative, saying that honest feedback can be the motivation needed to improve.

“If someone ever wakes up and tells you that you are not yet where they want you to be, work hard,” he advised.

Rather than harboring resentment, Cysto Panda believes criticism should be used as fuel for growth, insisting that proving doubters wrong through improvement is more rewarding than taking offense.
