FETUGA ADEMOLA ABDUL-HAFEEZ with stage name M3LON pronounced just like the fruit. Yes, like the WaterMelon fruit; makes music that would have you taping your feet and bumping your head to his gliding rhythm that he sometimes blends with a staccato delivery. Basking in the glory of tradition and self awareness, Ademola hails from a royal family in Olisa, Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria. This positions M3LON to be deeply rooted in his cultural heritage which he translates into his music that in turn makes Afrobeats more than just an aesthetic to him but a way of life and a means of communication. Bagging a record deal with KEYQAAD, one of Africa’s top labels and home to international superstar Omah Lay; M3LON surfs on a wave that’s an amalgamation of African Percussions, nostalgia, cultural heritage and exhilarating melodies.
