Award-winning Afrobeats star, Fireboy, has revealed that his new album 'Playboy' shouldn't be misconstrued as him being a heart breaker. Details: The 'Peru' crooner appeared on Apple Music Africa Now Radio hosted by celebrated on air personality Dada Boy Ehiz. While discussing the context of his new album, Fireboy revealed that naming his album 'Playboy' doesn't suggest that he's gallivanting his way through different women while breaking their hearts in the process.
He revealed that the name tag was an attempt to
showcase himself as an artist and a man coming out of his shell and letting his
guards down.
"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." Fireboy said about the choice to call his album 'Playboy'.
Fireboy also
revealed that since he entered the limelight in 2019, his life has been
conditioned by the standards set for superstars like himself. With 'Playboy', he wishes to enjoy his fame and
success, and for the first time live life on his terms.
"I’ve been
shying away from it 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."
'Playboy' was released Friday, 5th August 2022, making it Fireboy's third
album in four years. Fans and critics have hailed the album for its subtlety,
digestibility, and comprehensiveness.
