The highest profile collaboration released last weekend has to be Zoro‘s “AYO’M” which features Phyno, Mr Eazi, Chike, and Umu Obiligbo.
Needless to say, it’s another “Ogene” banger.
When he’s not being an #EndSARS activist, a comedian, or an award-winning actor, Folarin Falana takes up his fairly modest side-hustle: music.
Such a blessed young man.

For far too long, Nigerians saw conscious music through the lens of Fela Kuti. Those who attempted such socio-conscious creativity usually channelled their inner Fela by creating Afrobeat-sounding tunes to go with the lyrics. That is changing, as can be seen on Rema‘s new record “Peace of Mind“. Listen here.

Skales dishes out a new DTAC-produced joint “Inumidun.” It’s a feel-good number.
Fresh from signing a record deal with Warner Music SA, former Chocolate City star, Ckay, drops a sweet pop single titled “Felony“.
Niyola is back! Finally! And what a way to return!
Olumoranti which is translated from Yoruba as ‘God I Remember‘ is the singer’s ode to her late parents who passed on two years apart within the last three 3 years. The video is evocative, gripping and a laudable display of strength.
