ALBUM: Sean Dampte – Lagos Friday, London Monday
Sean Dampte ‘Lagos Friday, London Monday’ Album Release Confirms Star Power
“Catch me on the flight to Lagos on Friday night, brew some coffee with me on Monday morning in London, the Album…,” London-based Afrobeats and Afrofusion singer, Oluyole Oluwaseun, popularly known as Sean Dampte confirms his forthcoming body of work. As known by musicians all over the world whose primary content is their lifestyle, Sean Dampte has brought everyone along on the way he lives his life and consciously depicted it in his music. And this more prominent than subtle is depicted in the title of his project.
Sean shuttles between London where he is based and Lagos, Nigeria over a count of 15 return flights in 2021 alone and 2022 hasn’t slowed Afrobeats LifeStyle king. In fact, one of his fans had said while commenting on the nature of the lifestyle. “Who does that?” Only Sean Dampte can do that! One moment you could be watching his live snap stories in Nigeria, recording making merry and vibing with his team, whilst you expect to see more of him in the typical Airbnb settings peculiar to Lagos Island – in less than two days he would have surfaced in London relishing some African dishes. This cannot be made up,” the fan-submitted.
Also, Sean Dampte must have given ideas about this in the viral video of one of his previous tracks, ‘Women Weed Wine’ in which he documented his Lagos life upon landing from London. He might have just reserved the rest of the storytelling for this album.
According to a press release from Dampte’s camp, the album is an 11-tracker tell-it album that invites you into the real life of Sean which hasn’t quite been revealed in all his past bodies of work. You would think you could define the Afro-Fusion singer but there are more sides to his creativity yet to be met.
Sean Dampte who gave credits to his in-house producer Jay Ocean, Jomane, TushBeats and Joey Plus amongst others revealed the album. According to Sean, he described the album is a twin installation – the essence of which will be fully comprehended. He stated further on the inspiration peculiar to each track on the album.
Testimonies from his close associates domiciled in Nigeria could not hide their wonder as to how he navigated through these destinations in the pursuit of his eventful career. They could tease about owning an unannounced private jet that transports him seamlessly but most importantly they understand that it’s a sacrifice Sean is committed to bringing this album to life.
Garnering different experiences from London, and Lagos, including brief visits to Port Harcourt, Abuja, and to also mention Kenya and Dubai promises a never-estimated-before quality of the #LFLM album.
It’s his first-ever album, and his mantra remains proven that music is to be enjoyed without noise…’’Ariwo ko ni music’’. Download, Listen & Enjoy!
