Nigerian Afrobeat singer, Fireboy has opened up on how
dangerous it is to be famous.
Fireboy, in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, revealed that
fame makes one feel like a god and can manipulate anyone into doing things and
end up making costly mistakes.
The ‘Peru’ crooner noted that fame could mess one up
mentally, causing costly mistakes.
“Fame is like money, it’s like s*x. These three things can
get to you. They can mess you up mentally. They can affect your thoughts and
manipulate you into doing things. You feel on top of the world, and you just
make mistakes.
“When you’re famous, and you make mistakes, you are making
mistakes for everyone to see. It’s different from when just a normal person
that makes a mistake and you can quickly correct them. There are some mistakes
that are very costly and I don’t want to make a costly mistake,” he said.
“I’m always very careful, fame is very dangerous. Fame is
powerful, sometimes you feel Iike a god. You are talking to a person and the
person is even shaking.”
He added that his concern now is keeping this fame for a
long time and being relevant as an Afrobeat artist.
“I have the pressure of beating my old record because I want
to prove that I’m not one hitmaker,” Fireboy said.
