Following his Coachella debut, award-winning Nigerian singer-songwriter Fireboy DML released his first solo track of the year, “Everyday” marking a new phase in his musical journey.
“Everyday” represents a departure from Fireboy’s previous works, embracing a grounded and culturally resonant vibe with traditional African beats, gentle shakers replacing typical percussion, and a saxophone carrying the melody throughout. This shift creates a more intimate and soulful atmosphere, enhancing Fireboy’s heartfelt lyrics with a softer, rhythmic approach that highlights his ongoing musical innovation.
In “Everyday”, Fireboy DML explores themes of longing and affection through emotive lyrics that resonate deeply with listeners. The song’s authenticity and raw emotion reflect Fireboy’s growth as an artist and his ability to connect with his global audience through his music.
Recently, Fireboy DML made his debut at Coachella, delivering a high-energy performance on fellow Nigerian DJ and record producer SPINALL’s set. He also sat down for an interview with Rolling Stone at Coachella to discuss his experience. Additionally, during weekend two, Fireboy joined Jon Batiste for an electrifying performance of their hit record “Drink Water,” featuring Jon Bellion for the first time, from Batiste’s Grammy-nominated studio album “World Music Radio”.
Moreover, Fireboy was featured on Forbes Africa’s 30 Under 30 List and achieved success with his second mainstream crossover record, “Liar,” in collaboration with Justin Timberlake from the album “Everything I Thought It Was”. This accomplishment follows his first notable mainstream hit, “Peru,” featuring Ed Sheeran, which achieved Platinum status in the U.S. and went 2x Platinum in the UK.
