• Nigerian singer Fireboy DML admits to attempting to emulate Beyoncé’s stage presence but falling short.
• He shares his journey of envisioning himself performing for large audiences while writing songs.
• Fireboy emphasizes the importance of personal growth and enjoying oneself on stage.

Popular Nigerian singer Fireboy DML has opened up on his journey to artistic growth, revealing that he once attempted to copy the stage presence of American pop star Beyoncé but found himself unable to match her prowess.

In an exclusive interview with RollingStone, Fireboy shared his experiences, acknowledging his initial struggles to replicate Beyoncé’s performances.

According to Fireboy, despite his efforts, the level of excellence achieved by the multiple Grammy winner remained out of reach for him.

Reflecting on his journey, Fireboy disclosed his determination to evolve and enhance his craft.

He revealed how he channeled his aspirations of performing in front of massive audiences into his songwriting process, envisioning himself on stage even during the creation of his most heartfelt compositions.

Fireboy went on to emphasize the importance of personal growth and development as an artist.

In his words;

“Right from time, even when I used to write my saddest songs, I used to imagine myself playing them in front of millions of people. I always imagine myself on stage when I write my songs.

“So taking that energy from the studio to stage is really a piece of cake for me. What matters to me is making sure that I have fun. When I enjoyed myself, everyone else enjoyed themselves. Step by step, I learned from the greats, I studied; did artist development stuff like vocal training.

“There was a time I tried to copy Beyonce’s routine. But I didn’t last two days.”
