In 2017, Idyl auditioned for season two of The Voice Nigeria and was selected by singer Timi Dakolo into his team for the competition. In September 2017, after a 3-month long competition, he was announced as the winner of the reality TV series, ahead of 48 other contestants who qualified for the finals.[6] This was the first ever win for Team Timi Dakolo on the show.[7]
As a result of his win, Idyl received a recording contract with Universal Music Africa, a sports utility vehicle and an all-expense-paid trip to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.[8]

After his win at The Voice Nigeria, Idyl performed at the GAC showcase in Guangzhou, China[9] and he released his debut single on the Universal Music imprint, Better Love.[10] In July 2018, he released Owami, featuring South African singer Lungi Naidoo and produced by Ckay, which enjoyed critical success.[11] Idly featured another South African artiste, Rowlene Bosman in March 2019 on the song, Satisfy Me, which was described as an edgier sound compared to his earlier releases.
