Nigerian singer Bella Shmurda has revealed that he experienced greater freedom before rising to fame. In a recent interview on Channel Tweety7, the artist reflected on how stardom has limited his ability to live freely and maintain simple social connections. “When I wasn’t a celebrity, I used to be more free and hang out with friends. But now, it’s like I’m in a box,” he said.
Shmurda, known for his street-inspired hits, also opened up about the pressures that come with being in the spotlight. He noted that being the main provider for his family adds to his daily stress. “I am the major breadwinner of my family. That comes with a lot of pressure. The money has got to keep coming, if not, I’m in trouble,” he stated.
While the responsibilities of fame have weighed heavily on him, the singer remains driven. He shared that he’s always felt destined for success and refuses to slow down. “There’s this feeling. If you are going to make it, you will know and you won’t stop working,” he said. His comments reflect a deep awareness of both the rewards and sacrifices that come with celebrity life.
Despite feeling confined, Bella Shmurda’s passion and commitment to his craft remain clear. As he continues to grow as an artist, his story highlights the personal costs behind public fame, offering fans a more intimate look at life beyond the music.
