ORIADE is my first EP — a sound that represents my journey, my growth, my struggles, and the wins I’m chasing. Every song carries a different part of my story, from the pain and hustle to hope, love, ambition, and the reality of growing up and finding my own path. This project is more than just music; it’s a reflection of where I’m coming from and where I’m going. I put my heart, experiences, and energy into every track, creating a sound that connects with the streets and speaks from the soul. “Orí Adé” means “the head of a crown” — a reminder of destiny, greatness, and the journey toward becoming who you’re meant to be. Mo ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti kékeré, mo sì ń lọ sí ibi tí Ọlọ́run pèsè fún mi. ORIADE jẹ́ ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìtàn mi — kò tíì parí, èmi náà kò tíì dé ibi tí mo ń lọ. This is Dawn Denko. This is my beginning. ORIADE. 👑
