Critical reception
[gyara sashe | gyara masomin]Ayomide Tayo's review of Eyan Mayweather for Pulse Nigeria highlighted the rapper's struggle to evolve beyond his typical hustle-centric themes, resulting in a lackluster album. While Olamide's previous successes and influence on Nigerian rap were acknowledged, Tayo noted that Eyan Mayweather fails to deliver a memorable or fresh experience, with repetitive topics and uninspired production. He concluded that Olamide's fifth album "falls short of a classic," giving it a rating of 2.5/5 (Average).
Wilfred Okiche of 360nobs reviewed Olamide's Eyan Mayweather as an album that showcases his versatility, blending pop, highlife, and street anthems with energy and charisma. Okiche concluded, "It is still really Olamide’s world and we are all just living in it."[3]
