Lagos-based artist Oyedele has returned with his first single of 2025, “Biggie Biggie,” a vibrant Afrobeats track that marks his comeback to streaming platforms following last year’s Dream Man mixtape.
The visuals, designed in a strong Sepia monochrome, soaks the viewing experience in nostalgia — a feeling that’s frequently explored in Oyedele’s bohemian musicianship.
Directed by Tobi Ajiboye, the music video enhances the track’s dreamy, motivational themes, blurring the lines between reality and aspiration. The song channels the nostalgic essence of early-2000s Naija Pop while infusing it with his signature genre-fusion.
Coming on the heels of his recent album, Dream Man, “Biggie Biggie” is a vibrant track, combining African percussion like the talking drum, with other melodies from the harmonica, and piano, respectively, to create a Jazz-leaning dancefloor delight. Lyrically, the song reflects on mental clarity, ambition, and the relationship between self and communal improvement.
True to form, “Biggie Biggie” proves Oyedele’s ability to reinvent familiar sounds, while staying rooted in thoughtful storytelling—a balance that continues to set him apart. His 10-tracker Jazz-Hop fusion, Dream Man, and other recent releases has continued to set him apart as a melodic force majeure within the front guard of rising contemporary African musicians.
