Fireboy DML links up with Ed Sheeran to wrap up 2021 with a new sound and music video for PERU.

Adedamola Adefolahan widely known as Fireboy DML is an afro-life musician, signed to YBNL Nation and also EMPIRE. He infuses soul, RnB and country genres into his inherent Afro-Sound. He is known for his impeccable songwriting, his debut album – ‘Laugher Tears and Goosebumps’ and the following hit songs; ‘Jealous’, ‘Vibration’, ‘Party Scatter’, ‘Tattoo’.

In 2020, he released his sophomore album ‘APOLLO‘ under YBNL Published and EMPIRE. The project housed 17 tracks with 3 A-List artistes which are; rapper D Smoke, Wande Coal and his label boss Olamide has guest features. Major production from Pheelz, P.Prime, iamBeatz and Type A.

On ‘Apollo‘, Fireboy DML folds a diverse sonic palette into a contemporary Afropop iteration. Afrobeats fuse with the laid-back R&B of “New York City Girl” and the sensual melodies of “Tattoo”, and his silky voice conjures poignant emotions. Lyrical musings on fame, doubt and love—woven between melodic percussion from producers like Type-A—add enticing layers to the singer-songwriter’s music. He released 5 music videos for 5 tracks off the album.

Ed Sheeran may be the quintessential pop star of the 2010s: a singer/songwriter who seems to acknowledge no boundaries between styles or eras, creating a sound that’s idiosyncratic and personal. Sheeran borrows from any style that crosses his path — elements of folk, hip-hop, pop, dance, soul, and rock can be heard in his big hits “The A Team,” “Sing,” “Thinking Out Loud,” and “Shape of You” — which gives him a broad appeal among different demographics, helping to elevate him to international stardom not long after the release of his 2011 debut, +.
