Nigerian singer and fashion creative, Doyinsola, has released a new song, ‘Ejire’, days after welcoming twins, transforming one of the most significant moments of her life into a musical expression of joy and gratitude.
The release comes after the singer waited seven years to welcome her twins, a milestone she has now chosen to celebrate through music.
Doyinsola disclosed that the inspiration behind ‘Ejire’ came when she discovered she was expecting twins, a development that prompted her to channel her emotions and anticipation into a song dedicated to the experience.
For the singer, the arrival of two babies at once provided a deeply personal source of inspiration, shaping the direction of a song that reflects her excitement about motherhood and the fulfilment of a long-held desire.
The title, ‘Ejire’, is rooted in Yoruba culture, where the word is associated with twins. Its choice reflects the significance of the babies’ arrival and the cultural joy traditionally attached to having twins.
Beyond its connection to motherhood, the song offers listeners a glimpse into the personal experiences that continue to influence Doyinsola’s creative journey.
The singer has spent several years building a career that combines music with fashion, two interests that have remained central to her professional identity.
Her musical journey has included collaborations with established Nigerian artistes, including veteran singer 9ice, whom she featured on ‘Originality’.
Doyinsola has also released songs such as ‘Fallacy’, ‘Be Mine’ and ‘Rewind’, exploring different expressions of her musical interests while maintaining her presence in the creative industry.
Her passion for fashion began early, with the singer taking up sewing at the age of 12. That early interest developed into another creative pursuit, allowing her to combine her fashion interests with her activities in music.
Doyinsola’s latest release also comes against the background of the emotional challenges she has previously discussed in connection with her journey to motherhood. Those experiences add a personal dimension to a song inspired by the prospect of welcoming her children.
With ‘Ejire’, the singer has found a way to document a defining chapter of her life through music, making the release a celebration of her twins and the seven-year wait that preceded their arrival.
