Honestly, picking 5 songs from this album has been hard as hell?, but there are a few little things that make a song edge over the other like I said earlier on. This is also a song that could be described as a party banger. What really stands out in this song is the way DML fits in seamlessly with the beat and the way he arranged the bridge with the chorus was bliss. The man was born to do this!

Adedamola Oyinlola Adefolahan (born 5 February 1996),[2] known professionally as Fireboy DML, is a Nigerian singer. He is signed to YBNL Nation, a record label founded by Nigerian rapper Olamide.[3] His debut studio album Laughter, Tears and Goosebumps was released in 2019.[3] He won Listener's Choice and was nominated for Song of the Year for "Jealous" at the 2020 Soundcity MVP Awards Festival.[2]
His breakthrough single "Jealous" first appeared on YBNL Nation's collaborative album YBNL Mafia Family (2018), before being re-released on 25 March 2019.[5][6] The song is composed of guitar riffs, traditional drums and percussion; it combines African harmonies with elements of country and soul music.[5][4] "Jealous" was produced by Cracker Mallo and is centered around love and the complicated feelings that go along with it.[4] The visuals for "Jealous" were directed by Director K.[5]
Fireboy DML released his debut studio album Laughter, Tears and Goosebumps on 29 November 2019. It was initially scheduled for release on 25 November.[11] The album's music is a brand of R&B that combines love and social issues with empirical songwriting.[11] LTG comprises 13 tracks and doesn't feature any guest artist; it amassed over 6 million streams on Spotify three days after its release.[12][13] It received generally positive reviews from music critics, but was criticized for being labeled an "Afro-Life" record instead of an R&B album. LTG was supported by the previously released singles "Jealous", "What If I Say" and "King".[14] The single "Vibration" was a fan favourite.
Ivie Ani of Pitchfork gave the album an 8.3 rating out of 10, calling it "the peak of his vision so far, a melodious, detailed, and effortless album of feel-good pop and R&B."[16] NotJustOk wrote: "At the base of his writing is a deep-seated knack for introspection, the desire to be himself and a whole others like himself, spinning personal and borrowed accounts of existential crisis, ambition, love, lust and depression."[citation needed]
For Fireboy, this album is about evolution, growth, love and pain. He gave his gratitude to God, his family, every featured artist in the album, the YBNL team and everyone who worked with him to create this masterpiece.
A couple of months after the release of the album, he celebrated over a hundred million streams across all streaming platforms, performed in various sold-out shows and venues and signed a major distribution deal with EMPIRE, a distribution company also responsible for acts like Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock, Wande Coal, and many others.
Pre-released singles, Eli and New York City Girl do not do much for the album as a whole. On initial release, both songs were met with mixed reviews as most people failed to connect with them as much as they did with his previous singles. In the context of the album, they pretty much serve as fillers as they both lack any kind of vim or sweet spot.
The YBNL Nation/Empire artiste speaks on the concept of his sophomore album; This album is about evolution, growth, love, and pain. Gratitude to God for blessings. Gratitude to everyone who worked with me on this album; gratitude to my team (YBNL/EMPIRE), my family, and the kings who blessed this project with their presence.
YBNL artiste, Fireboy DML has announced the release date for his sophomore album, Apollo, after the success of his debut album, Laughter, Tears & Goosebumps.
The album has guest appearances from Wande Coal, Olamide, and D Smoke. Producers involved in the album include Pheelz, Type A, Iambeatz, and P. Prime.
Adekunle Gold has released his third studio album Afro Pop Vol. 1, the first of a 2-part series, which follows Gold and About 30. The talented Nigerian singer-songwriter embraces a wider array of influences while still maintaining the authenticity of his traditional West African sound with which he first made his name.
