Starting—doing something you’ve never done before, embarking on a path you love—is always difficult; it requires a great deal of commitment and effort. Bruv knew that becoming a singer would entail all of this, yet it never crossed his mind that it would actually prove to be so complicated. He hoped he wouldn't end up being one of those artists who struggle endlessly; perhaps luck would be on his side. Back when he was a student, he had already planned to pursue a singing career as soon as he finished his studies. He knew he wanted to be a singer because he possessed excellent vocal control, and everyone who heard him sing told him he was born for the stage. Thus, he already had the encouragement of his friends and family to get started. Furthermore, he personally adored music, so all the ingredients were in place to make him a great singer.
Upon completing his studies, he began by singing on a local television show. It was a program that selected singers at random, giving them a platform to gain public exposure. He stood out on the show—so much so that he was invited back to perform on multiple occasions. It was a fantastic start; of that, there was no doubt. Through the program, he gained his first fans and began to see people approaching him for autographs and similar requests. He found the whole experience incredibly fun—even addictive. From the very beginning, he grew to love the public's attention.
Comenzar, hacer algo que nunca has hecho, iniciar en lo que te gusta. Siempre es difícil y requiere mucho compromiso y esfuerzo. Bruv sabía que ser cantante conllevaría todo esto, pero por su mente nunca pensó que en realidad fuera tan complicado. Esperaba no ser uno de esos que pasan trabajo, quizás la suerte fuera distinto con el. En el pasado cuando era el un estudiante tenía planeado ser un cantante cuando saliera de sus estudios. Sabía que queria ser cantante porque tenía un control de la voz muy bueno y todo el que lo escuchaba le decía que el estaba echo para ser cantante. Así que el ya tenía el impulso de sus amigos y familiares para iniciar. También a él personalmente le encantaba la música, así que todos los ingredientes estaban listos para hacer de el un gran cantante.
Al salir de esos estudios inició cantando para un programa local de la televisión. Era un programa que elegía a cantar a la zar para que la gente los conociera. En ese programa destacó así que pudo cantar varias veces porque lo invitaban. Fue un gran comienzo de eso no había dudas. En el programa se hizo con sus primeros fans y ya empezaba a ver a las primeras personas pidiéndole autógrafos y cosas así. A el le parecía todo aquello muy divertido y hasta adictivo. Le empezó a encantar la atención de la gente desde muy temprano.
Whatever vocal talent he possessed, he lacked in maturity—he was, after all, just a young man. Consequently, upon breaking into the music scene so quickly and achieving fame, he assumed it would be nothing but smooth sailing from then on, and that he would never have to worry again. And so, he began to act foolishly. He fell in with the wrong crowd—people who encouraged him to pull stunts solely to rack up views. His music evolved toward themes that offered no positive contribution to society; their only aim was to stir up controversy and grab attention. Also swayed by his bad company, he made poor creative choices that caused the public to gradually lose interest in him. Meanwhile, his uncontrolled spending began to spiral out of control. He still possessed the voice, but this time, his lack of maturity finally caught up with him. People grew tired of him, and once his money ran out, his so-called friends drifted away.
In reality, those people had only wanted him around because he was so easily manipulated. So, once there was nothing left to gain from him, they abandoned him. His contracts with the various shows where he performed were cancelled as his fame continued its downward spiral. All of this forced him to confront the fact that he lacked the maturity necessary to continue in the music industry. He decided to retire until the day he felt truly ready and prepared to return. But that transformation did not happen overnight. It cost him his entire youth, for he was determined not to repeat his past mistakes. It is true that he may have gone a bit overboard—perhaps he could have made his comeback sooner—but he wanted to be absolutely certain; he wanted to ensure there would be no more mistakes.
Lo que tenía de habilidad en su voz le faltaba de madures, era solo un joven. Así que al entrar rápidamente en la música y hacerse famosa con ella pensó que ya todo sería subir y que no tendría que preocuparse más. Así que comenzó a hacer tonterías. Se juntó con mala gente que lo motivaron a hacer cosas solo por obtener vistas. Sus canciones evolucionaron hacia temas que no traían ningún bien para la sociedad. Solo buscaban generar polémica y atención. También influenciado por sus malas amistades tomó malas decisiones creativas que hicieron que la gente se aburriera de el poco a poco. Sus gastos sin control empezaron su sumarse. Tenía la voz pero esta vez la falta de madurez le pasó factura. La gente se cansó de el, y cuando se quedó sin dinero sus amigos se alejaron.
En realidad esas personas solo lo querían a su lado porque era fácilmente manipulable. Así que cuando no había nada más que obtener de el lo dejaron. Sus contratos con los diferentes programas donde cantaba fueron cancelados dada su fama en decadencia. Todo esto le hizo ver que no tenía la madurez necesaria para continuar en la música. Decidió retirarse hasta un día estar listo y preparado. Pero eso no fue de la noche a la mañana. Esto le costó toda su juventud, porque no quería cometer los mismos errores. Es cierto se pasó un poco, quizás hubiera podido regresar antes, pero él quería que fuera seguro, nada de más errores.
He stepped away from music for about eight years—nearly his entire youth and his prime years. He thought that by distancing himself, he would feel better about what he had done at the start of his career; in reality, however, he felt worse. During those eight years, he tried to make a comeback several times, but he was afraid of repeating his past mistakes, so he never went through with it. He had to make a living selling food from a street stall. He felt a pang of shame every time someone recognized him on the street. He longed for the day when that nightmare would finally end. The problem was that he still didn't want to wake up—and until he did, he couldn't climb out of the hole.
Se alejó de la música unos 8 años. Casi toda su juventud y mejores años. El pensaba que alejándose se sentiría mejor por lo que había hecho en su comienzo, pero en realidad se sintió peor. En esos 8 años intentó regresar varias veces pero le daba miedo hacer lo mismo, así que no volvía. Tuvo que vivir vendiendo comida en un puesto callejero. Sentía vergüenza cada vez que alguien lo reconocía en la calle. El deseaba el día en que aquella pesadilla acabara. El problema es que el aún no quería despertar, y hasta que no lo hiciera no podía salir del hoyo.
If he were still the same person, he would have remained trapped in the nightmare; yet sometimes, it is the people who love you who make you wake up. And that is exactly what happened. A fan who recognized him at his food stall told him that he loved his early songs and wished he would make a comeback. Unlike others, this fan did not mock his failure or his downfall. Consequently, Bruv recognized him as a sincere fan—and that was what finally made him wake up. Following that encounter, he returned—with renewed strength and greater maturity. To be sure, it will be like starting all over again. But this time, he will not make the same mistakes.
Si fuera el mismo hubiera seguido en la pesadilla, pero la gente que te quiere es a veces la te hace despertar. Y así pasó. Un fan que lo reconoció en su puesto de venta de comida le dijo que le encantaban sus primeras canciones, y que deseaba que regresara. A diferencia de otros este no se burló de su fracaso y su caída. Así que Bruv vio en él un fans sincero y eso lo hizo despertar. Luego de aquel incidente el regresó, con fuerzas renovadas y más madurez. Eso sí, será como empezar de nuevo. Pero esta vez no cometerá los mismos errores.
