Why I’m get nervous about stage performance – Olamide

Nigerian rapper Olamide has opened up about his ongoing stage fright during performances, attributing his anxiety to past traumatic experiences.

In a recent interview with YouTuber Korty EO, Olamide, commonly known as Baddo, discussed how incidents from prior shows have contributed to his nervousness. He recounted unsettling moments where audience members have invaded his space, including instances of his chain or hat being forcibly grabbed.

These memories have left a lasting impact on the artist, leading to heightened apprehension ahead of future performances. “I get nervous every time I am going on stage. I have had too many crazy experiences while performing. Someone from nowhere will just come and grab your chain or your hat; you don’t even know what to expect,” he said.
