Falz – Round Of Applause

Falz Drops New Single “Round of Applause” – Get Ready for “The Feast”!

The Nigerian music scene is buzzing once again as the incredibly talented Falz The Bahd Guy has released his latest single, “Round of Applause,” on May 9th, 2025. This exciting drop serves as the first taste of his highly anticipated sixth studio album, “The Feast,” which is slated to be served on May 30th, 2025.

Falz, known for his clever wordplay, socially conscious lyrics, and infectious beats, once again showcases his unique “Wahzup music” style in “Round of Applause.” This genre-bending approach fuses contemporary hip-hop with comedic storytelling often delivered with a playful, faux Yoruba inflection.

While official lyrics are available on platforms like Boomplay Music, initial reactions point towards a track filled with confidence and Falz’s signature lightheartedness. The title itself, “Round of Applause,” suggests themes of achievement, recognition, and perhaps a touch of well-deserved self-congratulation.

The release of “Round of Applause” follows Falz’s announcement of “The Feast” across his social media channels, building significant anticipation among his dedicated fanbase. This upcoming album marks his first full-length project since his 2022 release, “BAHD,” making new music from the “Bahd Guy” a highly awaited event.
Historically, Falz has used his musical platform to address pertinent social and political issues within Nigeria, as heard in powerful tracks like “This is Nigeria” and his recent commentary on the 2023 elections, “Yakubu.” It remains to be seen whether “Round of Applause” will follow this trend or lean towards a more purely entertaining vibe. Regardless, Falz’s reputation for delivering music with both substance and style precedes him.

With “Round of Applause” now available, the excitement for “The Feast” is palpable. Falz has carved a distinctive space in the Nigerian music landscape, captivating audiences with his ability to seamlessly blend humor, social awareness, and musical innovation. This new single is a welcome addition to his impressive catalog and has fans eagerly counting down the days until the full “Feast” is served on May 30th.
