ADEMOLA Adefolayan aka Fireboy DML has expressed his determination to leave a lasting legacy as a recording artist.
In a recent video, Fireboy DML opened up on his obsession with legacy saying, “My obsession with legacy, is like my love for legacy. When I google people like KSA, Fela, and Michael Jackson, I check their discography and I see 55 albums and I say that is what I want. I want people to google about me and say this Fireboy guy is so good at what he does or sings a lot. That is what I want for me. Aside from people saying good stuff about my person or my impact, I want them to say I have a lot of discographies, five out of his albums saved my life, and this album changed my life and much more. That is what I want for me and I will not rest, I will not die until I achieve all these.”
The ‘Bandana’ singer also spoke on the misconception of his personality owing to the title of his third album, ‘Playboy.’
He said, “I want to put out a disclaimer that it’s not the kind of playboy you think, or what everybody thinks… not a playboy that breaks your heart, this is just a young man that is starting to come out of his shell to play, express himself, have fun, to experience life, to step into his superstar element. I’ve been shying away from it for the past couple of years. The past three years of my career I’ve been a blown, established artist so I think it’s time for me to just step out and actually enjoy the fame that I’ve worked for over the past two years.”
