Popular musician Adedamola Adefolahan, also known as Fireboy DML, has disclosed the reason why, despite packing arenas across the globe, Nigerian artists hardly ever tour the nation.
He claimed that although Nigerian music is “perfect,” touring the nation is challenging due to the lack of structure.
The artist recently talked in an interview with Kayode Oladotun, also known as Do2dtun, of Cool FM Nigeria in Lagos.
“Afrobeats to the world,” everyone says, according to Fireboy. The music is flawless. However, there isn’t any framework.
“The [international] fans are hearing our music, but when will they go to Lagos to see us live? When will Lagos have arenas where we can host visitors from all over the world? It’s true that organization will just make things easier.
When asked whether he believed Nigerian fans would be able to afford arena events, he replied, “Yes, they will.” We’re here already.
All we have to do is offer them a reason to pay. People in Lagos would be willing to pay ticket prices if a good arena was constructed because they would feel secure.
