Watch Fireboy DML's New Music Video for 'Need You'
The buzzing Nigerian artist shares the video for the standout single from his debut album "Laughter, Tears and Goosebumps."
Buzzing Nigerian artist Fireboy DML has shared the music video for his latest single "Need You," one of the standouts from his warmly received debut album Laughter, Tears and Goosebumps.Laughter.
The track is an emotive love ballad, that sees the artist singing about the strong feelings he has for his partner over mellow guitar riffs. The song was produced by Pheelz.
The music video, directed by Clarence Peters, shows the artist and a love interest as they try and escape together, and later get caught up with the bad guy that's out to separate them. The events lead to a tragic ending for the couple. It's the fourth music video offering from Laughter, Tears and Goosebumps. "Of course, it's a tale of love—of finding it again, of learning that time is fickle and you have to treasure what you hold dear while you still can," wrote Fireboy about the song on Twitter.
The 23-year-old artist landed on several radars in 2019 with the release of the popular track "Jealous" and of his debut album, which has been widely praised on social media. He won a Soundcity MVP award last weekend for Listener's Choice, and is poised to have an even bigger 2020 as one of Nigerian music's most talked about rising stars.
