The R&B artist Yanya Mbuk described how he had to persuade some organisers to let him perform at events in December 2021.
The musician revealed that he even begged to perform for free at two events last year in order to acquire awareness in a tweet on Wednesday.
He added that he still had over 20 paid performances to give, and he thanked God for changing the story this year.
Iyanya went on to express his gratitude to his supporters and some artists that helped him develop.
“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 everyday to alerts for shows, haven’t had this kind of busy december since 2017. 20+ shows in one month. God Thank you,” he wrote
“And to my fans and everyone who streamed my music this year, God Bless you. There’s got to be more and I promise 2023 will be a better year for everyone who has supported me this year. We will definitely have a great 2023.”

Speaking about what he did differently this year, Iyanya said he learned from his mistakes and became more consistent.
“Someone just asked what I did differently. Took stock of all my mistakes, blamed and forgave myself, reunited with my former partner and Manager @ubifranklin1 and he reminded me of how we started and we went back to that same plan,” he added.
“Setup recording camps, Created new music and was consisted, followed new and emerging trends, Used my social media platforms well and Stayed positive.”
