Fireboy DML Cements His Shocking Breakthrough In “Apollo” Album – Review
YBNL superstar, Fireboy DML carefully selects a bunch of songs to make up his sophomore album tagged “Apollo”.
In a competitive music industry where artist’s experience a short spell of success and disappear into the thin air after a while, Fireboy DML strategically seduces his audience to be entangled with his sound.
Adedamola Adefolahan professionally known as Fireboy DML was heartily welcomed in 2019 when he introduced his rare talent to the Nigerian market. He was applauded for his songwriting prowess and his melodies. His first studio album “Laughter, Tears and Goosebumps” racked up so many numbers penetrating the streaming charts of so many countries.
While many celebrated his success in a solo performed body of work, others had doubts that his fame is momentary and would fade out in no distant time. This most definitely made him turn down many collaborations just to stay true to his sound.
In 2020, Fireboy DML announced the tracklist of his sophomore album titled “Apollo”. The 17-track album features Olamide, D Smoke and Wande Coal with 14 songs solely performed by Fireboy DML. Pheelz, Iam Beatz, and other amazing producers gave Fireboy DML the best instrumentals needed to drown the critics.
With alternative, afro-fusion, afro-soul, and afrobeat sounds, Fireboy DML declares himself a champion and a legend in a making in “Apollo” album.
The music direction is awesome and the lyrics are spectacular. In a singular word, the album is ‘addictive’.
Please do listen to Fireboy DML “Apollo”if you haven’t or do so again if you have!
