A Nigerian man recently stirred conversations online with a heartfelt birthday tribute to the talented Afropop artist, Fireboy DML.
On Fireboy’s birthday, an old friend identified as @iambankalat took to Twitter to extend warm wishes.
In his message, he reminisced about their shared journey, recalling humble beginnings where they allegedly shared moments of camaraderie, even enjoying simple meals like garri together. However, amidst Fireboy’s rise to stardom, @iambankalat expressed a hint of melancholy, feeling somewhat overlooked by his now-famous friend.
In a playful manner, @iambankalat humorously asserted his claim to a slice of Fireboy’s newfound success, suggesting, “Happy birthday, Fireboy. I remember when you never blow we been dey drink garri together, now you don blow forget me for Trenches I still dey struggle. Omo me I’m entitled to your money oo ”
This heartfelt message captures the bittersweet essence of friendship in the face of changing circumstances and serves as a gentle reminder of the bonds that endure through life’s ups and downs.
