From Factory Worker at 15 to Starboy - Singer, Fola's Recounts Journey to Stardom

kacylee at 7-09-2026 07:54 PM (36 mins ago) (f) Singer Fola has taken a trip down memory lane, reflecting on the humble beginnings that shaped the person he is today.At just 15 years old, Folarin started working as a factory worker in 2016. At the time, he had no idea that the young boy holding that first job ID card would, a decade later, look back at it with a completely different perspective.What began as a simple job at such a young age became a reminder of just how far he has come. Today, Fola believes that music was the very path God used to transform his life and take him from those early struggles to where he is now.Looking back, the journey may not have made sense at the time, but every experience, every struggle and every step appears to have played a role in shaping his story.From clocking in at a factory at 15 to pursuing a career in music, Fola's journey is a powerful reminder that where you start does not always determine where you will end up. 15-year-old Folarin had no idea that 10 years later, he'd look back at his ID card from his first job in 2016 and realise that music would be the very thing God would use to change his life. pic.twitter.com/aDf6ldqifN — FOLA (@Folapondis) September 7, 2026 I have been reporting for several years now and I am very interested in visual news reportage with strong inclusion of photos and video multimedia.
