Blaqbonez’s New Single “Fire On Me” Drops July 19th

Following the success of his acclaimed third studio album, Emeka Must Shine, Nigerian music sensation Blaqbonez, is set to make his return with a new captivating release on the 19th of July. Titled “Fire On Me”, this soulful anthem captures all the tapestries of a sizzling summer romance.

On “Fire on Me” Blaqbonez masterfully narrates a tale of passion and emotion punctuated by his irresistible melody and infectious rhythm. The track envelops listeners in a whirlwind of sensations, leaving them craving more with each captivating verse.

What sets “Fire On Me” apart is its embrace of love—a stark departure from Blaqbonez’s earlier sonic personas which heralded a mission of anti-romance in albums like “Young Preacher” and “Sex Over Love.” Through poignant lyrics and heartfelt vocals, the artist bares his soul, inviting audiences on a journey of vulnerability and intimacy.
