The Boy Who Played The Harp Lyrics – Dave
“The Boy Who Played The Harp” by Dave, from the album The Boy Who Played
Dave
Name: Dave (David Orobosa Michael Omoregie)
Date of Birth: June 5, 1998
City: Brixton, London
Country: United Kingdom
Genre: Hip-Hop, Rap
Band/Group Members: Solo artist
Roles: Rapper, singer, songwriter, actor
Bio:
Picture a young kid in Brixton's concrete jungle, Nigerian roots running deep through family stories of Lagos grit, shaping a voice that cuts straight to the heart of growing up overlooked. That's Dave, turning South London's pulse into bars that feel like confessions over kitchen tables—raw, introspective hip-hop laced with that UK edge, where vulnerability meets quiet fire. He burst out with "Game Over" in 2016, but it was Psychodrama in 2019 that hit like a gut punch, earning him a Mercury Prize and turning tracks like "Heart Attack" into anthems for anyone wrestling their scars. We're All Alone In This Together followed in 2021, unpacking isolation with Stormzy and Central Cee features that still echo in late-night replays.
Now, at 27, he's two days from dropping The Boy Who Played The Harp on October 24—his third album, a poetic nod to childhood dreams and the weight they carry into adulthood, teased with singles that have fans dissecting every line on socials. Raised between church choirs and estate cyphers, Dave's sound bottles that ache of ambition in a system stacked against you, reminding us healing isn't linear. If life's got you questioning the script, spin his catalog; it might just rewrite yours a little softer.
