Since the Lockdown I’m getting time to reflect and study my own self and working on the plans for my future
Alobo has also been active social worker – taking part in various charity events, raising funds for the underprivileged and engaging in awareness campaigns. This quality of his is reflected in some of his songs. He was deservingly awarded the Governor’s award for excellence in music in 2016.
His second album ‘Kini’ was released in 2017. The official video of one of the tracks ‘Chasing Ghosts- Feat Moto’ was released on March 27, 2020.
In this quick interaction with Nagas Connect (NC), we had the chance to ask Alobo a few questions about his work, the ongoing coronavirus lockdown and some of his future plans.
NC: You have just released a new version of your song Chasing ghosts from your 2017 album Kini. What’s the inspiration behind that?Alobo: It was an old song from my previous album. The song won best song of the year in 2018 at AAMA also but many people were not aware of this song since I never released this on YouTube. So I thought why not share the song to the world through a music video.
Alobo: Musik-A is opening a new branch at Chumukedima this year. We are all set, waiting for the pandemic to pace down. By the grace of God, I have no complain regarding the response, and I want to see more branches opening around India in few years.

Alobo: Consistency, discipline, dedication and smart marketing is missing
Alobo: I am getting more time to do bible study and fasting everyday since the lockdown with my family and coming closer to God. Getting time to reflect and study my own self and working on the plans for my future. I am also getting more time to spend with my family. Lockdown is also helping the Mother Earth in many ways. And lastly polishing my talent and getting enough time to watch the movies I always wanted to. NC: You are a youth icon, a known face to most Nagas. What would you like to advice our youth in general?
Alobo: Put God first in everything you do, and everything will be added unto you. Come out of your comfort zone and see the world from other angle. Life is beautiful, it’s a gift, take good care of your life and people around you.
