In anticipation of his new project, the award-winning artist provided insights into his innovative Afro-Life genre, which he describes as a fusion of Afrobeats with added levels of soul and depth.
Fireboy expressed that while Afrobeats music has always been captivating, he felt it lacked a certain depth and lyricism. He believes his music brings a new dimension to Nigerian mainstream pop music with his Afro-Life genre, injecting soulful elements and meaningful lyrics into the vibrant soundscape of Afrobeats.
“The Afrobeats scene before I came in, has always been beautiful. It was built on vibes and energy and percussion and instruments and everything. But I realized that there was something lacking, and that was pure soul and lyricism in our music. That was what I brought into the game. And I figured if you’re bringing something new to the table, it needs a name. That’s why I call it Afro-Life — it’s Afrobeats that has some depth to it.”
In addition to discussing his new genre, Fireboy also provided insights into his upcoming fourth album, set to be released later this year. Describing it as the culmination of his experiences over the past few years, Fireboy expressed his intention to delve into personal themes and explore what success means to him.
