2017 Winner of The Voice Nigeria Speaks On Experience So Far.

The winner of the just concluded The Voice Nigeria Idely who was mentored by Timi Dakolo,reveals that he was persuaded by his friends to go for auditioning.

According to him he said,

 “It was not really my idea to audition for the voice; my friends pushed me into doing it. When I was registering, I did not think I was going to win because I had auditioned for several reality television shows before I became the winner of The Voice Nigeria. I auditioned for Project Fame from Season Five to Nine. I went for Nigerian Idols auditions from Season Three to Five. I went for X-Factor as well. I have gone for so many auditions. Whenever I went for auditions, the judges would tell me that I was good but not yet ripe for the stage. Some would tell me I am good and I would go back home expecting their calls but they never reached out to me. “Regardless of what they told me, I did not stop pursuing my dream because where I come from, we do not stop till we get what we want. Music is life to me, it is the only way I express myself. Saying that I would stop pursuing my dream means that I would stop living.”

He further said that

wining the Voice Nigeria still feels like a dream.

 “Although I have been the winner of The Voice Nigeria Season Two for a short while, my life has really changed. I am beginning to get used to being a star. I go out now and people ask me for auotographs, it is very strange to me but I would get used to it,” he said.
