Joeboy, a well-known Nigerian singer whose real name is Joseph Akinfenwa Donus, regrets not bragging about his accomplishments loud enough.
The musician revealed this in a recent episode of the podcast “Body & Soul,” where he stressed how humility reduced his worth in the music industry.
Joeboy made the revelation when asked about what he would have done differently in his career line despite his success story as a singer.
The singer of “Baby” admitted that he occasionally wonders whether he should be more outspoken about his artistic successes because his cool demeanor frequently causes people to ignore them.
In his word, “What could I have done different? I would say, be more arrogant [laughs]. Because you people don’t have respect. When you are always calm they go just feel like say you are not that guy or something. It’s crazy, but it is what it is.
“I felt I should have been more loud about my achievements because, to be honest, una no reach. But it is what it is. We grow and we learn. That’s one thing I wish I had done then; which I’m going to do now.”
Joeboy’s claim in the interview had since sparked mixed reactions from netizens. Some berated him for being unnecessarily loud lately while others agreed that with his perspective.
