Fido, the emerging voice from Nigeria’s vibrant music scene, makes a powerful entrance with his debut album Olayemi. Released on July 31, 2025, through Oosha Records Ltd and EMPIRE, the project is a raw and rhythmic exploration of life, ambition, and emotion—told through the lens of a young artist who’s lived it all.
Rooted in the streets of Matogun, Ogun State, Fido channels his experiences into a collection of tracks that blend Afrobeats with street-pop grit. The opener, “Dollarpor,” sets the pace with its bold energy and hunger for success. “Omo Ologo” follows with a confident celebration of self-worth, while “Joy Is Coming” delivers a wave of optimism that quickly became a fan favorite. Its remix, featuring Kizz Daniel, adds a smooth, star-powered twist that elevates the message even further.
“Lungu” offers a raw glimpse into the struggles of street life, marked by its explicit honesty. “Boko” and “Money Moves” keep the momentum alive with infectious rhythms and motivational fire. Then comes “I Miss You Die,” a heartfelt ballad that reveals Fido’s emotional depth and romantic side.
Switching seamlessly between Yoruba and English, Fido’s lyrics are both personal and universal. Olayemi is more than a debut—it’s a statement of identity, resilience, and artistic promise. For listeners seeking authenticity and rhythm with meaning, this album hits all the right notes.
