Cholera Outbreak Update

  • November just started, and you know what that means – the annual challenge to keep it zipped, literally. No Nut November, the internet’s favourite abstinence movement, is back.

    To help you power through those tempting moments, we’ve curated the ultimate playlist. These 10 Afrobeats bops, carefully selected to keep your mind focused and your resolve strong, will be your auditory guardian angels.

    If You Ask Me — Omawumi

    This is a soulful, conscious song about child sexual abuse, but it works for No Nut November. This one goes out to everyone who uses what’s between their legs to hurt others and their community. Do us a favour; keep your thing to yourself.

    Gobe — Davido

    You see, Davido doesn’t fool himself. He sings that there’s a strong sexual tension in the air, but he’s ready to wait. He’s a patient man. Davido sings, “Good come those who wait.” If your babe says till December, my dear, you’ll have to make patience a virtue.

    No Kissing Baby – Patoranking feat. Sarkodie

    Patoranking isn’t here for only sexual relations; he’s all about giving and receiving the fullness of love. He sings: “If you no give, I no get take o.” Then, in the hook, “No kissing, baby, no touching, baby.” This is a man who will carry out a successful NNN. Be like him.

    Natural Something — Sound Sultan

    Do you know that spending lavishly on someone you like sincerely can be more pleasurable than a coitus meet-and-greet? No one needs a nut when there’s money to spend their time spending.

    No Touching — Guchi

    “Shey if I say no touching, shey you love me like that?”, Guchi asks in this song. There’s no better song to build boundaries and erect restrictions of urges this November than No Touching.

    Ladi — Phyno & Olamide feat. Lil Kesh

    These grown men sing about their dislike for eating it. They don’t care about their partner’s nuts. Anyone who moves like this doesn’t deserve to get some, either. Ojoro cancel ojoro. 

    Wait for Me — Johnny Drille

    Johnny Drille goes away for a bit, and he asks his lover to wait for him. He earnestly asks for her dedication to their love while he’s away. If you find someone that does the same for you, hold them tight.

    Goodbye — Ayra Starr feat. Asake

    Hugging a pillow is better than accepting disrespect in the name of having a partner or getting nuts. This is what Arya is telling us in this song. Listen.

    Space — Tay Iwar feat. Cruel Santino and Preyé

    This may sound like a heartbreak song to some of you, but see it this way: If your babe says No Nut November isn’t for them, but you’re observing it, tell them to give you space for a moment. If they’re for you, they’ll wait for you.

    by now — CKay

    This song is a cry of a man who’s been patient because he got the promise of sex. Are you like Ckay in this song? Or are you just like the one making him do this shalaye? Here’s your anthem.

    Listen here:

  • Another week of surviving capitalism and T-Pain has come and gone. But what’s before us isn’t just any weekend. Friday is salary payment day, AKA the 9-5ers’ favourite day of the month. In the excitement and thrills of that credit alert that carries your company or employer’s name in its note, we made a playlist of Nigerian songs that justify your hard work and spending habits.

    You only live once, dear. Enjoy your money, enjoy your life.

    Billions — Sarz and Lojay

    As a 9-5er, as you get up from bed on the 25th of any month, this song should be the first to play because you’re waking up to money. It’s the strongest motivation.

    Money — Adekunle Gold

    It’s only right to desperately call on money like AG did in the song’s chorus, especially when you’ve been praying for the salary week to come faster and the payment day finally arrives, but you’re still waiting for the alert. 

    Squander — Falz feat. Niniola

    Now that money has entered your bank account, it’s perfectly okay to get your shoulders up and lavish on cravings. After all, you worked for it.

    Commas — Ayra Starr

    It’s a great feeling when your salary reflects the work you do. Even greater if the money still covers major expenses in this T-Pain era.

    HEHEHE — Rema

    This is your moment of ultimate flex on our debts, opps (if you have any) and all the cravings you’ve denied yourself before salary entered. They can be sorted now. What’s not to laugh at?

    All My Money — Kashcoming

    “All my money, take all my money to” is the most repetitive line in this song. We don’t support unwise financial decisions, but you shouldn’t deny yourself what you love to spend on.

    Uhh Yeahh — Asake

    If clubbing is how you unwind, take out that salary and go enjoy some overpriced drinks and loud music. You’ll never be a big baller until you ball big.

    Whatever that means, the mood here’s a big “We are outside tonighttttt!”

    Aye Nlo — Masterkraft and CDQ

    This song tells me not to think too much about spending. Don’t worry about the house or car you could have built or bought if you didn’t spend your money on shawarma and other cravings. Enjoyment won’t pause for you.

    Bank Alert — Ice Prince feat. Sarkodie, Magneto & Rexxie

    If your ego (money) matches your ego, then by all means, flex it. In the famous words of Sarkodie, “Money no be problem.”

    Owo — Reminisce

    If your mood is spending cash like It’s an Owambe party, this Reminisce’s neo-Fuji jam is your fix.

    Listen here:

  • While last week we were talking about the nether region, this week we are taking you to church. Our #BumpThis playlist is our best Nigerian gospel songs that have been released this year.

    Whether you’re new in your spiritual journey or looking to deepen your relationship with God, we curated this gospel playlist for you.

    Remember — Sinach

    In case you missed it, Sinach started her 2024 with Remember. She decrees excellence and greatness into her year. She’s convinced it’ll be a better year than the last — “You did before / It’s already done.” Although we’re in the T-Pain era, this song is for all seasons.

    Nothing Dey Spoil for God Hand — Timi Dakolo

    This song is an anthem for the gospel believers. As long as you believe there’s God, everything you put in his hands is safe.

    Sing Over Me — Dunsin Oyekan

    Dunsin Oyekan and his choir teach us how to sing about our  convictions with this song. It’s jazzy, smooth, emotive and, yeah, it’s still a worship session. 

    Sorry — Limoblaze

    Asking for forgiveness doesn’t have to be boring. Limoblaze surrenders his ego, and opens up that he’s only a human trying his best to obey all his God’s will, but he gets overwhelmed sometimes. With the song, he seeks forgiveness.

    Never Seen — Yadah

    Since Yadah began her faith journey, she’s not had a single regret. She sings of the fulfilled promises and unforsaken righteousness she experiences and enjoys in her walk with God. If you relate or are fishing for inspiration for a praise-and-worship jam session, Never Seen comes highly recommended.

    Devotion — Ko’rale

    Now, it’s praise time. Ko’rale surrenders his ego and centres on his God. He’s deeply in awe of the endless love his God has shown him and sings assuredly of the great friendship he finds in his God. 

    Grateful (I AM Standing) — Oba Reengy feat. Tobi Toun

    Gratitude-filled raps spazz between Oba Reengy and Tobi Toun. Fine verses from two guys who proudly wear their faith like badges.

    Definitely — Ada Ehi

    This song sings of 100% assurance in one’s faith. Ada Ehi declares that she’s healthy, and happy because Jesus is involved. This is an audio version of the Biblical scripture that says, “Go your way. Your faith has made you whole.”

    Dance Anyhow — Judikay

    Judikay isn’t promoting disorderliness here. She’s talking about dancing and praising her God how she likes. She is encouraging believers to express their fullness of joy in God’s presence through dance (lowkey, you’re exercising your body. Don’t dull).

    Agalliao — Pastor Iren Emmanuel & Nathaniel Bassey

    You need to bring in your two-step dance moves, jump for joy — just like the song title suggests in Hebrew — and proclaim your faith. Agalliao gets electrifying by every progression. You can lose yourself to this.

    Listen here:

  • Quite a few music projects have excited listeners in the last three months since 2024 started. Now that the first quarter has come to a close, we’ve selected the most impressive of the releases and unpacked them for you. The selection metrics are production, songwriting, mixing and replay value.

    Love Practitioner — Anendlessocean

    Anendlessocean has hacked crafting music that keeps lovers entangled in romance until they realise the artist is singing about his love for God. Love Practitioner follows the Afrobeats structure with Amapiano toppings while the lyrics carry the message of love (for God) that doesn’t want to let go. Believers can easily sneak this into any party playlist.

    Folake — taves

    20-year-old taves is the Afrobeats rave of the moment. After years of releasing music since he was 16, taves’ latest single, Folake, audaciously swings into the Nigerian music space in the form of a funky R&B-disco. Without tripping over his Afropop and Hip-Hop roots, taves glides the beat and beautifully bemoans the possible start of a new relationship with Folake, likely another babe he met somewhere in Ibadan.

    Fall In Love — Flavour feat. Efya

    The merit of Fall In Love isn’t based only on its execution; its composition holds cultural and pop appeal, perfected down to the Highlife undertones and breezy performance of Ghana’s Efya. Flavour and Efya harmonise to the joy of finding love again. Find Fall In Love on Flavour’s eighth studio album, “African Royalty”.

    Toxic — Bagetti

    Toxic love is unhealthy, but it’s the message behind many great songs for some reason. Bagetti throws shots at a time-wasting ex she used to be obsessed with. While it’s a fuck-you song, she wishes he wouldn’t suffer the same emotional distress she battled in the relationship. If you need a word of prayer for an ex you don’t like, here it is. 💀

    Everyday (I Dey Pray) — Kold AF & Aema

    Those who work hard deserve to eat. Singers Kold AF and Aema reiterate this on Everyday (I Dey Pray). They’re confident in the work that’s gone into their craft, and failure isn’t allowed for them.

    Demons and Angels — Wizard Chan

    Wizard Chan taps into his inner consciousness to wrestle evil and preserve his good side. Demons and Angels is about fighting his distractions and vices as he tries to gain clarity. The song production is unusual and enjoyable. Drill fused with pop and reggae? Let’s have it.

    Last Card — Brume

    “No be me kill Jesus, me I must shaye o” is the essence of Brume’s Last Card, a song about enjoyment. It’s a simple, sing-along reminder that you only live once. Chop life today; tomorrow may be too late.

    Holy Maria — Plug Music

    Budding singers, TianaOtc, AddyOX and Psyy, won’t a second more with a lover who does the barest minimum. Hot girls are up, and you need to hear it loud and clear on Holy Maria, the fourth track on “Celine” EP (an all-babes project produced by Plug Music).

    No Forget Home — Timi Dakolo

    This is a reminder not to forget one’s humble beginnings. Timi Dakolo went fully experimental without losing his core audience in this mix of contemporary and indigenous music.

    Peace of Mind — ILLBliss feat. Fave

    Fave’s melodic hook and production, and the grown-man bars ILLBliss laid, set Peace of Mind apart as one of the highlights of his new album, “Sideh Kai”. The song is about blocking out bad energy and staying calm. Something every Nigerian needs to survive the current economic landscape.

  • Today’s #BumpThis is for all gospel music lovers, prayer warriors and choristers finding the latest in the gospel scene. Enjoy our playlist of the latest Nigerian Gospel songs.

    Listen here:

    Love Me First — Chidinma

    Nigerian Gospel music meets Amapiano on Chidinma’s latest song. Love Me First is her claim that God’s love for her existed before birth. Legworks can’t fail to this song of praise.

    Ojoro — Mike Abdul feat. Clement Wyte

    Ojoro, as stated in Mike Abdul’s song, is a snide remark haters drop when they see blessings falling on your lap and blame God for impartiality.

    Lolo Remix — O’Tobi feat. Drakare

    O’Tobi gets deep in his loverboy bag to describe the joy his babe gives him. God also got some shout-out for sending the babe his way. Drakare seasoned the track with a rap verse.

    Made A Way — Prince Dayo feat. Hosana

    Made A Way is a well-scored ministration song. From its slow-paced drums, guitar and keyboard chords to the choral backups, this track can never miss any time you yearn to praise and worship.

    Adonai — Stephanie Keri feat. De Muna and David Williams

    If you need gospel worship songs that sound like the clouds are open and angels are hovering around, I recommend Stephanie Keri’s Adonai. David Williams’ soothing vocals backed up Stephenie, and De Muna fueled it with her spoken word performance.

    Do to Me What You Want — Dunsin Oyekan

    In an eleven-minute-long ministration of worship and praise music, Dunsin Oyekan leads the music about totally surrendering himself to the higher power. Do to Me What You Want is a dedication song. 

    Jaiye — Kaydeegospel

    Kaydeegospel made this song so intimate one would first think it’s about a lover, but it’s God. Have a sweet relationship with God together, and make this your date soundtrack.

    He Cares — PYEFA 

    PYEFA uses his faith as a reference point for those seeking God’s face. He sings, “I no know wetin be your story, just know that Jesus Christ, he cares for you.”

    Psst! Have you seen our Valentine’s Special yet? We brought back three couples – one now with kids, one now married and the last, still best friends – to share how their relationships have evolved over the previous five years. Watch the first episode below:

    Discover the Spotify Gospel Playlists to Add to Your Morning Routine

  • For those who favour full projects over singles, for “hot off the studio” music with moods that range from party time and romance to relationship woes and melancholy, these are the best EPs that dropped during the week.

    LOVRBOY — Praiz

    Just in time for the Valentine season, Nigerian singer-songwriter, Praiz, rolled out an EP titled LOVRBOY. A collection of four songs that dig into love, longing, intimacy and the romantic notions he holds about his lover, LOVRBOY is a short and fresh project to play on repeat with your own lover.

    OLORI (The EP) — Logos Olori

    Logos Olori introduces his music in an expansive way: a seven-track project. Pop-ready and prepared for the mainstream, Logos sings about love and enjoyment with guest appearances from his label boss, Davido, on Easy On Me, and Hmm Hmm with South Africa’s Musa Keys. It may be a regurgitation of generic Afropop topics, but the production holds the music together. Logos’ melodies and tranquil delivery make his music worthy to listen to. 

    PRISMATIC BLVCK — Blvck Topia

    Blvck Topia is a digital artist and creative director with a music career spanning over three years. His latest EP, PRISMATIC BLVCK, paints visuals of sonder, love and the beauty within. He shares a peek into his escapism habits on Beautiful mind and Ah Ah, his romantic life on Bad and compares himself to Ota Benga on Blvck Boy. The production offers a potent psychedelic mood, and Topia’s vocals offer some shade from the depth of emotions. PRISMATIC BLVCK is calmness in stormy weather.

    MUIS EP — Muis

    This titular five-song EP leads with SAATI RAMONI, a sleeper Afropop bop that Muis released as a single in 2023. The song may be Afro-Adura — one of the many new sons of Afrobeats — but the EP offers more. It showcases Muis’ vocal and songwriting skills, revealing that he can hold the ears of the streets and the ladies. OMALICHA and OH MY GYAL (KUMBAYA) with producer, Ozedikus, introduced his bad-boy-next-door side in Afropop touched with dancehall. He found love he wants to keep on WAYO, and the amapiano-powered closing track, MY BABY, pulls him and this new love to the dance floor. 

    H.A.R.D — YDEE YDEE

    H.A.R.D is an acronym for Hip-Hop Across Rhythmic Dimensions. From the feel-good songs like GOOD TIME, afro-swing jam, I LIKE IT, and Afropop-edgy JEJE to the rap cuts that close out the project, H.A.R.D shows us Hip-Hop from an experimental perspective. It’s applaudable how the music producer, artist and collaborators all poured Afropop-edge into making something so thematically cohesive and representative of its title.

    It’s About A Girl — Kinj K.A.D.E 

    Dramatic and toxic relationships take centre stage on Kinj K.A.D.E’s EP It’s About A Girl. The singer displays a calm but firm grip on R&B smoothly blended with Trap Soul and Afro elements to express his versatility and aid connection with the local environment. If you’re still sentimental about an ex, or tired of relationships and thinking of entering the streets, firstly, get lost in Kinj K.A.D.E’s story about a girl and imagine it as yours.

    Our Valentine Special is here. We brought back three couples – one now with kids, one now married and the last, still best friends – to share how their relationships have evolved in the last five years. Watch the first episode below:

    Ritmo Mafiaso — Idowest

    Nigerian rapper, Idowest, just stacked his discography with a new EP, Ritmo Mafioso, meaning “mafia rhythm”. It’s a skein of street catchphrases, religious innuendos, and party and money yarnings across seven songs weaved on majorly Amapiano production. Idowest wants you on your feet, grooving.

    Hooligan / Why — Lucid

    Burgeoning Afropop singer, Lucid, starts his 2024 with a two-pack single Hooligan and Why after his introductory Hi I’m Lulu EP of 2023. In deep reflection, the first song expresses his debaucherous vices as symptomatic of his environment. Lucid hangs to the belief that if he doesn’t find time to curb these vices, he might be headed down a lost road. The song smoothly segues into his lover-boy moment on Why. Two vulnerable emotions in one pack, for the lost kids and lovebirds.

    Listen here:

  • Eroticism is one theme that Afrobeats effortlessly eats anytime it comes to it. Whether directly, subtly or figuratively, it’s clear through these particular songs that artists can communicate their romantic and hedonist desires well.

    Bump this:

    Ready — Sarz, Fxrtune & Pjstar

    Straight-up uncouth, Ready fills your head with Kama Sutra. This song is for the real eaters — the ones who won’t leave the sheets before a complimentary buffet.

    YAHWEH — Lojay

    Hold your church mind; don’t get it twisted that this has anything to do with God. This song supports the sweet gibberish you mutter in the course of the sloppiest “slurp-slurp”.

    Water from Wine — Amaarae

    Amaarae sings for those who’ll text back “omw” when their sneaky link calls. They just want to have a good time that’ll keep their satisfier on speed dial.

    Water — Tyla

    When realisation hits that this song isn’t about hard labour nor a conversation with a workout instructor, your mind quickly unwraps the subtle request for an intense genital meet-and-greet. As a queen who values her time, Tyla asks, “Can you blow my mind?” If she has to hustle for her own nut, you’re better off seated in your house.

    Attends — Brazy

    This fast-tempo House song takes you straight to the dance floor. When Brazy says, “Whine your waist, oda bi rubber,” you have to obey and put your flexible low waist to serious grinding. But with, “Cheat on me, I cheat on you” Brazy preaches that you pay your liaison back in their coin. 

    Amma HOE — Bizzonthetrack

    On this self-confessed jam about being a hoe, Bizzonthetrack makes it clear he’s unavailable for commitment. He’s only committed to whoring activities.

    Boytoy — SGaWD

    The sexual awareness SGaWD flaunts on Boytoy is admirable AF. This song is for the sexually liberated folks who own it with their chest. 

    Shibebe — Olamide feat. Fireboy DML

    Indoor is where the fun is at. You have all the time, space and privacy to “shibebe” (flaunt your waistbeads), Netflix and chill, do waterworks and all other sorts of debauchery. At least, that’s what Olamide Baddo and Fireboy DML said on this track.

    RECOMMENDED: The Year in Review: Nigerian Pop Events That Went Viral in 2023

  • It’s another new music Friday in Nigeria and not a single log drum or Amapiano whistle to be heard. Is the music industry slowly shifting from Amapiano and returning it back to the South Africa it came from? Well, these top Nigerian songs that dropped today are making a case for that.

    Yawa — Fireboy DML

    A groovy afropop song far removed from the Jersey sound experiment on previous single, Someone.

    Fireboy DML teamed up with music producers, Magicsticks and Telz, to make a statement about not minding haters and busybodies. He reveals a new smoking habit, and you can even hear Olamide smoothly backing him up at the end, but the clearest takeaway from the whole song is that it’s very much for the Nigerian audience.

    Angelus and My Darling — Victony

    Victony finally served us the singles he’s been teasing since June 11, 2023. On Angelus, Victony went back in time to pick inspiration from sounds reminiscent of Oliver De Coque. My Darling, produced by Ghana’s Juls, Victony continues to admonish to be in his life. No wonder Victony has been dancing in his promotional videos, these songs are groovy af.

    Sittin’ On Top Of The World (Remix) — Burna Boy ft. 21 Savage

    Burna Boy first released this single on the 2nd of June, but it didn’t pick up as you’d expect. Today, he re-released Sittin’ On Top Of The World with a verse from British-American rapper, 21 Savage. Hip-hop’s influence is clear on this remix; another proof Burna doesn’t miss when he links with foreign rappers.

    My Own — Major AJ ft. Blaqbonez

    Major AJ tapped his labelmate, Blaqbonez, to collaborate on this song. They’re saying what most people already know: finding love in Lagos is the hardest. My Own is a chilled bop with choral backup and serenading trumpets. It sounds inspired by Burna Boy’s Last Last, but with it, Major AJ shows he’s a versatile artist who can’t be boxed.

    Sokoto — Minz ft. Zinoleesky

    Apparently, Minz is now in a better position compared to the pre-release of Wo Wo, and he’s less-concerned about what detractors have to say about him and his music. His new single, Sokoto, is a party jam that explores his sexcapes. Coming from the success of Wo Wo single, Minz links with Zinoleesky to bring this sensual song to life. It’s afrobeats with a sprinkle of house music, produced by Babybeats and Mike Bgrz.

    Chasing Wind — Tim Lyre

    There’s nothing like staying original to your sound as a musician, perfecting it while dropping quality projects. Alternative singer-songwriter and producer, Tim Lyre, has made himself a standout among peers with his unconventional approach and reggae-influenced tone. On his latest single, Chasing Wind, he details the burden of dream-chasing.

    Pariwo — Mohbad & Bella Shmurda

    Since Adura came out in 2020, these two have returned with Pariwo, an uptempo song, telling whoever cares to listen that they’re unavailable for stressful conversations. Mohbad warns that he’s not in a playful mode, and no one should step on his toes. Pariwo is a testimony to the trajectory of their careers and how far they intend to go.

    Eleyele — Taves

    Taves is BNXN, fka Buju’s, new signee. His debut, Eleyele, is a laid-back fusion of afropop and r&b. On it, Taves bares his feelings about longing for a faraway lover.

    1da Banton – Nibolowa

    The miser

    You’re always telling others they’re being ripped off. Better spend that money. 

    Can’t afford outside

    The country is hard, no funds to sponsor enjoyment. You can’t touch your savings. Buhari, you do this one.

    Hyper Montana feat. Dapo Tuburna – Fears & Worries

    Buju BNXN – Pray

    DJ Tunez ft. Wizkid & Gimba – Blessings

    Wande Coal – 3 Square Meal

    Sean Tizzle – Al Barakah

  • If there’s one thing everyone should know by now, it’s Sarz is nobody’s mate. The superstar music producer delivers bangers year after year, proving his incredible chemistry with a wide range of artists — from headliners like Wizkid and Niniola to under-the-radar singers like Lojay and Obongjayar. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve had a hit before or not; with Sarz, you’re guaranteed one. 

    Sarz goes hard alongside Millymay_pod, Gimba and Fxrtune, for his first official single of 2023, Jam One Kele, the lead single off MTLF II — a compilation album by the 15 talents (artists and producers) of The Sarz Academy, Session Three. 

    RECOMMENDED: Lojay’s Monalisa is Better than Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Let’s Discuss

    Produced by the trio of Twitchpapii, Bombocat and Oddwave, Jam One Kele leans heavily on Caribbean influences to deliver the perfect summer anthem (if only we had summer in Nigeria for real). Gimba skates over the beat with an unforgettable hook, while Millymay_pod and Fxrtune trade verses that set the stage for a night of slow whining, alcohol and unlimited rocks. 

    While Millymay_pod, Gimba and Fxrtune each carry this song on their back with impeccable delivery, Sarz takes charge as the curator of the track, showcasing his ear for great music and even greater artists — including P.Priime, Tempoe and Dunnie — way before the world takes note of their greatness. 

    Jam One Kele feels like the party starter we’ve all been waiting for.
