Afropop singer, Iyanya is counting his blessings as the year comes to an end while recounting how he begged to perform in shows in 2021.
He revealed this time last year was gloomy as he only had one paid show performance.
Seeing he wanted to remain in the public’s eyes, the “Kukere” master confessed to having pleaded for the chance to perform free of charge at two shows.
However, one year later, Iyanya expresses gratitude to God for changing the narrative because he’s fully booked for the month.
According to him, this December is by far the busiest for him as he wakes up to alerts for shows daily.
He said: “Last year December 2021, I performed at 3 shows, one paid and I begged to perform at 2 just to be seen.
2022 December, I wake up and every day to alerts for shows, haven’t had this kind of busy December since 2017. 20+ shows in on month. God Thank you.”
