Nigerian recording artiste, Fireboy has stated that he could be joining the movie industry later in the year.
The singer-songwriter whose real name is Ademola Adefolahan said he took the bold step because he always receive compliments that he is “very dramatic”.
The singer said he had showcased a bit of his acting skills in some of his music videos but is now set to make his major acting debut this year.
Speaking in a recent interview with Billboard News, Fireboy also said he would be releasing an album this year.
He said, “I am excited to share with the fans that I am releasing my album this year. I am finishing up the album here in LA. I’ve got an apartment with a pool. I want to be in an environment that reeks of happiness, peace of mind, and comfort. And that’s what I want the album to sound like.
“I am also going into the movie industry. Yeah, I am going to be acting. My people have always said that I am a dramatic young man. I mean, I know being dramatic does not equate to knowing how to act but I do know how to act. I have acted in a couple of music videos. I can’t let this gift [acting talent] waste.”
