On this week’s episode of Nigerian songs you should listen to for the week, we’ve got tracks from the newbies shaking the music scene and some of the OGs. Here’s our round-up of the best tracks that came across our desks.
Patoranking – “Abule”
To prepare fans for his third studio album “THREE,” Patoranking released “Abule” which documents his experiences and stories in the hood. The award-winning afro-dancehall artiste’s track is a simple celebration of his neighbourhood in, Ebute Metta, Lagos, The Niger Delta, and of hood worldwide.
Premiered via Beats 1 Radio with Ebro, the track’s top-notch production and catchy hook make it easy for summer listening and partying. The dancehall-inspired track also comes with an Afrobeats vibe, which has become the singer’s signature sound. Listen and Enjoy!!
Olakira – “In My Maserati”
Following the success of his previous release titled “Aya Mi”, Wakanda Jollof crooner, Olakira released both the audio and visuals of “In My Maserati,” an infectious track inspired by his love for the luxury vehicle brand. On the track, Olakira promises his sweetheart a tastefully different kind of love and of course, a ride in “His Maserati”
Fireboy DML – “Spell” ft Wande Coal
Released off his sophomore album, “Apollo” Fireboy and Wande Coal murdered this track with beautiful and sonorous vocals about a damsel who has cast a spell on them. The Wande Coal of the “Bumper to Bumper” era came back and it’s hard to resist the vibe this track brings.
Zinoleesky – “Ma Pariwo”
Shhh, Mapariwo (Don’t Shout)! Just when we thought we couldn’t handle the still buzzing “Caro” which features his label boss, Naira Marley, Zinoleesky came through with another banger. The Marlian Music multitalented singer and songwriter teamed up with producer, Trips to tell the tale of an affair that is meant to be made secret. We’re sure everyone can relate to this story. Listen!
Tiwa Savage – “Koroba”
Tiwa Savage surprised her fans again with another single after the release of “Dangerous Love,” an addictive Afrobeat tune that talks about how love is a risky adventure, a blend of excitement and yet uncertainty and fear. However, Tiwa Savage takes things to another level with Koroba as she throws heavy shade to Nigerian politicians and also to her naysayers. It’s got a groovy feel and catchy lyrics.
Burna Boy – “23”
“23” is another impressive track off Burna Boy’s trending music project ‘Twice As Tall‘. On this, the afro-fusion recording music act talks about solely about hypocrisy and pretenders. He shares how he steadily fights his way to the top and to earn the Grammy Awards nomination. This track is highly Spiritual and also motivating.
DJ Kaywise – “What Type Of Dance” ft Mayorkun, Naira Marley, Zlatan
DJ Kaywise released this track to celebrate his birthday and he recruited street lords, Mayorkun, Naira Marley, and Zlatan for the street banger. On the new dance track produced by DMW in house producer, Fresh VDM and also Echo The Guru, Mayorkun delivered a catchy chorus and lyrics, Marlian Presido, Naira Marley gave out his bad boy swag (no manners) attitude with Zlatan on the verse, addictive back-up vibe, and catchy Ad-libs.
May D – “Lowo Lowo” Remix ft Davido
Shortly after coming out of his shell to refute claims of his greediness while still in P- Square’s camp, the singer got signed to Davido’s DMW. To begin his journey as a signed artiste to the label, Davido jumped on the track “Lowo Lowo” for a remix where he sang about wealthy imprints and hit-lines word. Davido says his father has been spending since 1964, his family has been topnotch and showering money with different trips. Listen and Enjoy!!
Fireboy DML – “Tattoo”
This is another single off Fireboy’s latest album “Apollo” which sees Fireboy woos his lover with sultry and sexy lyrics. The official visuals give the perfect representation of Fireboy’s lyrics as he gets really intimate with his love interest. Firebody certainly showed himself in another light for this track and it shows he’s not just a loverboy when it comes to songwriting. This song is perfect for getting in the mood to show your lover how much he/she means to you.
Adekunle Gold – “Pretty Girl” ft Patoranking
Released off his “Afro Pop Vol one” album ‘Pretty Girl’ is an exceptional track, Adekunle Gold teamed up with sensational Reggae/Dancehall act Patoranking for this bopping tune dedicated all the Pretty girls in the world.
The title of this track off his latest album “Twice As Tall” speaks for itself, Burna is way too big, cool and smart to be moving with some acts and exchanging words or proving his worth. “Because I’m way too big, way too big to be fucking with you, And be moving with you, mmm, Because I’m way too smart, way too smart to be falling in your trap”
DJ Tunez – “Pami” ft Wizkid, Adekunle Gold & Omah Lay”
Wizkid, Adekunle Gold, and Omah Lay need to be protected at all costs because they could be arrested for murdering this song. This was the collaboration we never knew we needed because its a huge hit. The track produced by Blaise Beatz is a perfect blend of Afrobeat and the raving Bop sound.
‘You & Bad Influence‘ crooner Omah Lay starts the record with his cool hypnotizing vibe as Wizzy baby took over to show he is still the Daddy Yo that makes ladies Manya. AG Baby on his own part brought the Chemistry between him and Blaise Beatz on his hit song ‘Something Different’ (which we all loved) into play to spice up the new record and turn it into a Bop jam. Stream this song for clear skin!
Falz – “One Trouser”
Still enjoying the success of his last single, Falz the Bop Daddy came back to the music scene with a new tune “One Trouser” which talks about the hustle and buzzle on the streets of Lagos. The title is the English subtitle of the Yoruba adage ‘A jo ma wo sokoto kan na‘ (i.e more than one person wearing a trouser) which means there would be a fight or challenge between two guys or lady. On the track, Falz narrates the different palava between lagos private and commercial drivers, motorists and passengers.
L.A.X – “Lose My Mind”
Produced by Clemzy, L.A.X on this new release talks about following his heart, settling down with the one he loves even when he is almost about to lose his mind. “I don’t want to waste your time, O girl I miss our fight ooo, I put my head on your shoulder, When this is all over,Want to make you my wife”
