YBNL and EMPIRE Releases a new music
video performed by the label Young
champion, Fireboy DML for the track –
‘Airplane Mode’.
Fireboy returns with ‘ Airplane Mode ‘ visuals
after the success of Lifestyle and Champion
(featuring D Smoke) videos. Airplane Mode is
taken from his sophomore album, APOLLO the
follow up project to his debut – LGT.
On his debut album LGT, “ Laughter, Tears,
and Goosebumps ”, he was a loverboy, a
hopeless romantic guy but on “ Apollo ”, he
shows a much more confident side that really
never gets to see the light. The album
displays his outlook on life, his journey as an
artiste, and the drama in the Nigerian music
space.
Fireboy gets really personal and shows a
vulnerable side on Airplane Mode . He sings
about the stress from friends and family and
how he has to live like an animal.
“So many things wey dey bother man stress
from friends and family and Brotherman…
Man living like an animal, When a problem
goes, Life comes with another one, But I’m a
god, I’m a stronger man, I be different breed,
my kind no be normal one…”
Fireboy understands his rise to being one of
the finest acts would create conversation that
he is trying to be number one. His aim isn’t
just to be the greatest ever, he only wants to
be one of the greatest to ever do it.
“I’m not trynna be the number one, So many
legends dey, I’m just trynna be another one”
Due to the weight placed on his shoulders,
Fireboy says he feels like he’s about to lose
his mind. It’s a way of telling you that even if
he has attained a god status, he is very much
human like the rest of us.
“But Sometimes E dey be like say I wan manya
oh, All the pressure and the wahala oh, E dey
be like say I don tire, Sometimes, E dey be like
say I wan manya oh, All the pressure and the
wahala o”
Having to explain to people you want to be
alone and do things on your own can be quite
annoying. Fireboy says he just wants to be
and doesn’t want to see any message from
anybody ( Go flight mode ).
“I just wanna be alone, I don’t wanna see no
message on my phone… Nothing dey do me,
you should know I just feel like i should do
this on my own, I just wanna be alone…”
In the second verse, he cries out about his
woes ranging from money problems to
woman drama and also the competition. He
drops an important message – ‘Grace Is
Important But The Talent Is A Plus’. He lets
listeners into a reality that they can relate to –
‘The Reality Of Wanting To Give Up And Let
Go’.
“If no be love, na money palava, If no be
stress, na woman and drama, Competition
people dey para, Too much beef when I no be
mallam, Na God dey do am, no be my power,
Grace na koko, the talent na jara, So i lock
myself inside my yara go down on my knees,
and i call on baba”…
Fireboy Introduced Airplane Mode video with a
message that reads;
‘ I have always wanted to do this, Be this. The
gist is many people have talent but you see
Grace, GRACE is the backing that makes the
damn Talent shine. No one ever think of the
problems that comes after Fame and Success.
Omo mehn I don Taya! ‘
