A Standout From His Debut EP Ollywood BLVD, Now Streaming Everywhere
Los Angeles, CA – June 12, 2025 — Artist and actor Olly Sholotan is set to release the official visual for “I Go Dey Vex”on June 12, offering a new layer of intimacy and depth to one of the most emotionally resonant tracks from his debut EP, Ollywood BLVD. The EP, released earlier this spring, has introduced Olly’s distinct musical voice — a cinematic blend of Afrobeats, Hip-Hop, and R&B.
“I Go Dey Vex was actually the first track I wrote off my new EP [Ollywood BLVD] and I finished producing it while shooting the second season of Bel-Air,” Olly explains. “It’s this really intimate song about coming to terms with the fact that even though I can feel on top of the world, my work still isn’t done. I’ve achieved so much and I still have so much I’m yet to do.”

Watch Here:
With warm Afro-fusion rhythms, Hip-Hop-influenced drums, and soulful R&B vocals, “I Go Dey Vex” is a quiet anthem about ambition, purpose, and emotional transparency. The forthcoming
video captures that feeling — the tension between gratitude and restlessness, success and striving.
Following the success of Bel-Air and the critical reception of Ollywood BLVD, Olly is proving himself as a multidimensional artist with something meaningful to say — and the creative tools to say it well.
