Fireboy recently stated, “2023 has been a year of learning and growth for me as a person and as an artist,” in an interview with Wat And Ers.
“I’m just incredibly appreciative of the experience. I believe that this year has been the year for me to be thankful for the journey, as some people say.
It’s acceptable to acknowledge your humanity at times and to put aside your identity as an artist.
“With a real life and genuine issues, just like everyone else.” And I’ve learned to truly appreciate all of those things this year.
“This year has been rather quiet for me so it’s also giving me more time to spend more time with family at home in Lagos, Nigeria,” he said, adding that he hardly had time for his personal life previous year.
“This year is one of those years where it’s necessary for artistes to grow and step down from all the craziness and just enjoy life and appreciate life for what it really is,” he continued, referring to how his hit song “Peru” impacted “my life and took me to so many places all at once.”
