If you have a dream, you fight to make it real. That’s exactly what rising artist Billirano has been doing since discovering his musical talent. Starting with raw passion from Agege and a smartphone, he’s turned freestyle videos into real-world opportunities, proving that hard work and creativity can open doors in the competitive music industry.
Billirano’s journey began on Instagram, where he posted freestyle videos. With nothing but his voice and determination, he tagged celebrities in hopes they’d notice his unique style. His persistence started paying off when he featured Nigerian star Zinoleesky in a freestyle video. He continued rapping over Bnxn and Pheelz’s hit song “Finesse”, The clip went viral, catching the attention of fans and artists alike. Soon, co-signs started rolling in: producer Larry Lanes produced a track for him, and respected figures like Shoday praised his freestyle skills. Nigerian superstar Zlatan took things further, inviting Billirano to perform at his shows and even promising him a verse live on stage—a promise that later became their collaboration on the single “Blessed”.
But Billirano’s hustle isn’t limited to online clips. He’s stepped onto major stages, performing at T Dollar’s concert, Bella Shmurda’s High Tension Rave in 2024, and Roglob Studios, a hotspot for emerging artists. He even earned praise from rapper Minz for his soulful cover of his song “WoWo”. Each performance sharpened his skills and grew his fanbase, turning him from a freestyle artist into a live act to watch.
His latest single “Blessed” with Zlatan has reignited his grind. Calling his promo strategy “Hawking My Music,” he’s taken a playful, DIY approach to marketing. He collaborates with friends and fellow artists like Lyta, T Dollar, Vassa, Boy Spyce, Kashcoming, and Boy Muller, creating fun, shareable content that feels authentic with a standout moment with Oxlade, promoting the song to fans.
Billirano’s story isn’t just about talent—it’s about refusing to give up. From tagging celebrities in Instagram posts to sharing stages with industry heavyweights, he’s built his career step by step. With his mix of raw skill, bold collaborations, and a knack for turning every opportunity into something bigger, Billirano is proof that dreams take shape when you pair passion with relentless effort.
