Around March 2013, he gained admission into the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife to a four-year program in the English Language. During his time on campus, he continued writing songs and perfecting his talents in music and on-stage performance.

During this time in OAU, he managed to perform on programs and events around the campus. By the end of 2017, he bagged a bachelor’s degree in the English Language at the Obafemi Awolowo University.

Soon after his graduation, he went moved to Lagos, music full-time, and went by the name Fireboy DML. DML is the acronmy form of his name, Adedamola.

His initial plan on completion of his first degree at OAU was to move back home to Abeokuta. But, he suddenly decided to take the risk to pursue a music career in Lagos.

During his time in Lagos, he had to stay with some of his university friends because he didn’t have any close/intimate relatives in Lagos. His parent also didn’t approve of him going to Lagos to pursue a career in music, so they did not support him financially.

Instead of giving up on his dream of becoming a musician, Fireboy wrote and sold songs to some of his colleagues and even did a couple of menial jobs to secure his daily bread. During his spare time, he would go hang out in the studio for a session or freestyle with some of his friends that had some musical equipment in their home.

In 2018, Fireboy DML’s song Jealous brought him to the spotlight, and even got a record label deal with YBNL.

Although his hit song Jealous was released in 2018, it premiered on Youtube and the YBNL Mafia Family Album. Being the song that brought him to the spotlight, it is fair that we talked about it a bit.

The song Jealous is based on real-life that happened between Adefolahan and his girlfriend in the OAU. According to Fireboy, he loved the girl with all his heart but he was seeing other guys which broke him apart.

The Afrobeat tune was produced by Cracker Mallo and the official video was shot and directed by Director K.

He is an iconic figure in the Nigerian music industry, loved by millions of fans, and this is songs playing in thousands of music channels and radio stations across the world.

Just after dropping “Jealous”, Fireboy released another tune tagged “What If I Say”. “What If I Say” is a badass melody filled with that touches the soul. This song was a showstopper and this romantic single solidified his stance as one of Nigeria’s most talented musicians.

On the 1st of August 2019, Fireboy DML released another single titled “King” the video also premiered on Youtube that same day. Today, Fireboy has released two studio albums [Laughter, Tears And Goosebumps, and Apollo]. He has also written and released more than 64 songs.
