The twenty-year-old singer who will be twenty one this year creeped into our consciousness when he released his debut track “
African Princess” under Mavin records.
Korede Bello
went further to garner more fans and specifically won the hearts of his
female fan base with that famous wink when he delivered his verse on
highly acclaimed “
Dorobucci”.
Since
then it’s been a forward and steady rise for the Jerry curled Afro
singer. He is one lucky soul who gets to churn out hits just at the
right time. And the results are always simply amazing.
Korede Bello
sets digital streaming goals for some of his industry colleagues,
currently amassing over 60 million gross stream on YouTube excluding
other platforms.
Now the time draws near for the lad to
drop his debut album. Like it’s well known by now, the album is aptly titled “
BELLOVED” a coinage from his surname Bello. There are a few reasons why you should be pumped up to receive his debut album.
No Perceived Pressure.
One very important
reason why Korede’s Belloved album should be warmly received will be
that it isn’t born out of pressure. Korede’s “Belloved” might definitely
be better than Reekado Banks “Spotlight” because he isn’t under
pressure to deliver based on any ascribed status. Belloved is probably
going to be top notch because creativity will be allowed to take its
full course on the album.
Korede Bello Has Hit Puberty In Music
From
a certain perspective, Korede Bello has hit transformation and has
gained mastery. After the release of comical “Mungo Park” and “Laye”
which fall short of glory, Korede quickly got back his groove on “Do
Like That” which turned out to be a cross border hit. Do Like That has
witnessed Korede mature from a shy teenage sweetheart to a bad boy,
something in the form of a Yoruba demon. His lyrics proof he is finding
his rhythm and pace and overall what works for him. We expect to see
more of that growth showcased in his debut album.
Mistakes On Spotlight Maybe Fixed On Belloved
Obviously,
there were gray spots on Reekado’s “Spotlight” album, from an overly
long track lineup to a few nonchalant production. If the management at
Mavin Records indeed pay attention to criticism on “Spotlight” it is
safe to say some misgivings will not be repeated on Korede’s Belloved
album. Potential errors maybe as well prevented on the forthcoming LP.
Don Jazzy Doing The Most
It
is very obvious Don Jazzy took a back seat when it came to producing
“Spotlight”. Apparently, “Belloved” might have Don Jazzy put in his best
into the album production. Altims and Baby Fresh will also bring their A
game on this one.
There’s Something For Everybody
Korede
Bello has personally assured fans that all expectations will be met on
his debut album. Hence, it is expected that we will have music that will
cut across all age groups, culture and class. Great news, that’s a good
reason to anticipate the “Belloved” album. There will be a takeaway for
everybody!
