Why I’m relaxed and not chasing more success – Fireboy DML
Nigerian singer and songwriter Adedamola Oyinlola Adefolahan, known professionally as Fireboy DML, shared in an interview on Cool FM that he is not actively pursuing more success because the year 2023 has taught him the importance of enjoying his wealth and appreciating “God’s blessings.”
He reflected on the year being relatively slow for him musically and how it has prompted him to see life from a different perspective.
The singer emphasized the need to take a break, relax, and appreciate the blessings around him rather than constantly chasing success. This shift in mindset has led him to focus on family, relaxation, and a more balanced approach to life beyond the pressures of continuous success in his music career.
He said, “This year, more than ever, has taught me to take a break, relax and appreciate God’s blessings instead of chasing more and more success.
“This year, being like a relatively slow year for me [musically], kind of like put things in perspective like, ‘Okay, maybe, it’s time to get off that high and relax; take a deep breath. There’s family. Enjoy the wealth you’ve gathered. Appreciate the things around you and stop chasing success.
“This year I’m relaxing. I’m always at home, I’m recording in the studio. On Sundays, I play football. And once in a while, when I miss the attention of the ladies, I hangout with them.”
