Greetings!
Yesterday, a friend forwarded a video of someone singing to me, urging me to watch and appreciate the beauty of the video. At first, I was reluctant to click on the link, but my friend emphasized that I should watch it. I eventually did, and wow, it was amazing! I didn’t stop there; I scrolled through the community, as I occasionally do, and once again, I was shocked at the massive earnings on those singing entries. It stirred my mind yet again, reminding me of how difficult it has been for me to pick up a microphone, set up my camera, and create an entry....singing on camera
This is something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. In fact, I’ve had many discussions about it with friends who are into singing and even with those who aren’t but are willing to give it a try. However, it just hasn’t worked for me.
No lies, those earnings are incredibly enticing. Imagine someone earning from a single post what I earn in two months from multiple articles! I just wish I could do this. I wish I could overcome my camera shyness and come out boldly to sing.
Interestingly, it’s not just about the earnings. I’m a full-time lover of music, particularly the kind we have on my continent—Afrobeats. If you look through my articles, you’ll see that I write about music every single week. Not only that, but the kind of songs I enjoy are ones I can actually sing. I take great interest in compelling lyrics and derive immense joy in singing along.
But my problem lies in facing the camera and putting up those staged reactions. I remember a time I wanted to adopt the Ojiapiano style, where Kcee covered his face with a mask to make the video.
That might work well for me, but I worry people wouldn’t find it interesting if I were masked.
When it comes to my voice, I know I wouldn’t have an issue. My voice is pleasant to the ear, and I’m confident it would sound great in a song.
Many times, after watching music entries, I feel inspired to do the same. However, the urge dies down whenever I think about the camera aspect.
Will I ever get to do it?
For sure! All I need is a little more motivation and a slight push. Maybe seeing someone as shy as I am doing it for the first time would inspire me. After all, that person doesn’t have two heads.
Thanks for reading.

You can do it even if it means that it would not appreciated much at first.
Na this conditional thing...
Imagine taking the bold step and nothing comes out😅

That one is normal when you start but with consistency you would have built a fan base and gotten better
My brother, you can do it. No lie what these guys get in one post just by singing is big. While I think is something that you can also do.
Thanks for sharing
