Erigga has never been the type of rapper to chase trends or polish his rough edges for acceptance. With Pour the World Spit, he leans fully into that identity, delivering a boombap record that feels intentionally backward-looking. This is not nostalgia for the sake of it. It is a reminder of who Erigga was before […]
Valentine’s Day in Nigeria is not simply about romance. It is a public performance where love is styled, staged, and interpreted through clothing. What people wear on February 14 functions as social communication, revealing how affection, desirability, status, and intention are negotiated in public space. Fashion becomes the language through which love is announced, questioned, […]
Omah Lay’s return to the spotlight has been a cautious one. After a long silence, Waist arrived as his first single and immediately raised eyebrows. For listeners who have followed his journey from Get Layd through Boy Alone, the song felt emotionally lightweight, almost detached from the deeply introspective writing that built his cult following.

Sometimes, all it takes is one record to pull an artist back into the conversation. Not a carefully calculated hit or a radio-friendly formula, but a song driven by urgency and unresolved emotions. With Man to Man, Dremo returns to the Nigerian music space not as a pop-adjacent act chasing relevance, but as a rapper […]

Angels by British Nigerian producer Lekaa Beats, featuring Omah Lay and Odumodublvck, sits right in the middle of that test. On paper, […]
FOLA’s artistic growth has been gradual but noticeable. Since coming under the mentorship and creative umbrella of Bella Shmurda, his music has taken on more emotional clarity and confidence. Bella’s own rise and eventual partnership with EMPIRE has also helped accelerate FOLA’s visibility, but what truly sustains Caricature is not reach. It is restraint. The […]
Every generation of global stars shares one common trait. An uncommon skill set that separates them from their peers long before fame arrives. In Nigerian music, the artists who have successfully exported their sound have always carried something extra beneath the surface.
