A guitar shredding, drum scorching, piano plinking, bass wobbling silhouette of a singer, D.ablo is one of London's loudest musical secrets. Cutting his teeth as a featured vocalist, producer and musician he has worked with some of the UK's biggest talents. Now it's D.ablo's turn to take centre stage with the release of his debut album 'The Retrospective'.
Born and raised in East London on a diet of grunge, calypso and jazz, D.ablo is a product of his environment and an exception to the musical rules, combining mainstream charisma with underground originality. Influenced by everyday life and his open-minded musical taste, he writes anthems that have both immediate appeal and slow-burning hidden qualities.
D.ablo first came to the public’s attention as a member of the legendary UK hip hop crew TerraFirma, making a name for himself thanks to his unique vocal style and multi-instrumental abilities. Since then he has worked with a diverse group of artists including NERO, Maceo Plex, Alix Perez, Paloma Faith, Foreign Beggars (recently performing with them on the single 'Anywhere' at the iTunes Festival at London's Roundhouse), 16Bit, Ayah Marar and Noisia.
D.ablo also makes up one half of the Sleeping Giants production unit with fellow TerraFirma graduate Skriblah DanGogh.
His underground party and record label Boglewaltz is known for its eclectic music policy and fun-loving crowd. Recent guest performers have included Damian Marley, Aloe Blacc, Questlove, Benji B and MistaJam.
On 'The Retrospective', D.ablo showcases his talent alongside the producers he learned his craft with, moving between acoustic singer songwriter material, steel drum solos, emotional ballads and striking harmonies with the confidence of an artist sure of his roots but always looking to expand his musical horizons.
With an upcoming release schedule of new material, fresh collaborations and live appearances this album is really just the beginning of D.ablo's adventures as a solo artist...
have you ever
D.Ablo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every smirk and every grin
The way your spirit warms the room
Got a girl wanting you near
From when the sun rises
Even when the moon hits the sky
I want to be inebriated off your love
Cause everyday with you feels so right
Feeling as though I been released
From the feeling of never feeling free
Baby you have me
Feeling higher than taking a dose
Of Toradol or Morphine
Baby, you have me
I promise you'll never have to worry
About me
Cause our love will be
As real as the Lord loves the church
As it always and should be
Don't you understand and see
Ain't no agonizing feelings
We need to be conversing
Your love is a blessing
Oh baby I ain't fronting
Got me over here singing
Oooh Oooh ooh ooh
You see how you got me
This love is never ending
We flowing like currency
Baby you have me
Feeling as though I been released
From the feeling of never feeling free
Baby you have me
Feeling higher than taking a dose
Of Toradol or Morphine
Baby, you have me
Constant thoughts have disappeared
Of wondering if love is for me
Every time you are near
No I wasn't lonely
But I see the beauty in patience
Truly is a key
Your spirit is filled with so much
Like who makes the pottery
We aren't made by chance
But made to be
Oh baby yeah don't you see
What you do to me
Baby you have me
Feeling as though I been released
From the feeling of never feeling free
Baby you have me
Feeling higher than taking a dose
Of Toradol or Morphine
Baby you have me

Line by Line Meaning
Have I told you lately that I love you
Are my expressions of love recent and frequent enough for you to remember them
Could I tell you once again somehow
If I have not expressed my love enough, can I repeat it now in a way that is meaningful to you
Have I told you with all my heart and soul, how I adore you
Especially when it comes to expressing how much I am in love with you, I have made every effort to show you with unwavering devotion
Well darling, I'm telling you now
At this moment, however, I need to make sure and reaffirm my love for you once more
This heart would break in two if you'd refuse me
If you rejected my love, my heart would be shattered and broken beyond repair
I'm no good without you anyhow
My life without you is not worth living, and I wouldn't be half the person I am today without you
Have I told you lately that I love you
It's important to me that you know how much I love you, so I am asking again if I have expressed this adequately
Well darling, I'm telling you now
At this moment, I want to emphasize and reiterate once again how deeply and completely I love you
