Nigerian singer, Adedamola Adefolahan, known professionally as Fireboy DML, has recalled how he left a show in a sad state because of the crowd’s reaction.
He revealed that he want to perform at an event and the audience did not recognise or give him any attention, so he walked out of the place crying.
The YBNL artiste disclosed in a recent interview with Billboard News that the incident happened during his days as a struggling artiste.
Fireboy DML acknowledged that every up-and-coming artiste faces challenges and he was not exempt from such experiences despite now being a star.
He said; “Every upcoming artiste always go through a lot of stuff. There was a show I went to perform and nobody even knew I was on stage or spared me a second glance. Everybody was just dancing.
“The DJ was just DJing. I felt invisible and I went back to the car with my friend crying. I told myself never again. I will never ask for something until I feel like I deserve it.”
