Should wizkid and Davido fail here are other albums to look out for
Nigerian music sensation Davido, teased his fans with the video of himself and American ace rapper Ludacris in the studio cooking a collaboration ahead of his 2nd studio album which will hit the general public in no distant time prompting us to take a look at the most anticipated Nigerian albums in the second half of 2019.
Meanwhile, Nigerian music heavyweights Wizkid and Davido have been going back and forth with the original dates of their album release which has kept fans uncertain about the actual time they will be dropping their albums.
For albums, 2018 was an extraordinary year for Nigerian music. The quantity of album releases was high and positive. The numbers may be decreased, yet 2019 has been an increasingly strong year for Nigerian music as far as quality is concerned.
Effectively, top quality albums from Show Dem Camp, Mode9ine, Falz, The Lost and Found (Paybac and Boogey), Santi, Remy Baggins, Simi, Moelogo, Falana, etc. Despite the fact that projects from Patoranking and Runtown have been polarizing, regardless we still appreciate them.
Nonetheless, we anticipate other albums from some of our favourite acts below; in case Wizkid and Davido fail us again, though we have them in the top 5 list.
Tiwa Savage
Album Title: Unknown
Album Status: Speculative
Mummy Jam has been on an astonishing run. Asides headlining foreign shows and tour dates, she has dropped two albums in her effectively distinguished career; Once Upon A Time (2013) and R.E.D (2015). She likewise released the widely praised Sugarcane EP in 2017 and was on Solar Plexus, the compilation album by Mavin Records.
This culminated in her seamless exit from Mavin Records to join the greatest record name on the planet, Universal Music Group half a month prior. While we have seen nothing to propose that she’s wanting to release an album, the amazing entertainer has never gone over two years without a project.
Along these lines, there appears a plausibility that she may release some collection of work before the year rounds off.
Burna Boy
Album Title: African Giant
Album Status: Complete and set for a release.
Arguably the most controversial Nigerian singer, Burna Boy had a splendid 2018. He released the widely praised collection, Outside, headline tour dates and shows across African and Europe. His single ‘Ye’ ended up one of the top tunes of 2018 as evaluated by remarkable productions like Okayplayer and Passion Weiss.
Outside was his third studio album. Since 2012, the vocalist has dropped three albums, two mixtapes and two EPs. One of the EPs, Steel and Copper which he made with DJDS was released before in 2019.
A few weeks ago, news broke that the singer hosted a listening party for a new album titled, African Giant in Los Angeles, US. The collection is presently set for a conditional August, 2019 release. The album is a play on words for his infamous rant at Coachella in early 2019.
Davido
Album Title: Unknown
Album Status: Presumably in progress
Davido is the sequential hitmaker and for just reasons known to him, he is a hesitant project creator. Be that as it may, if we somehow managed to risk a conjecture, actually the vocalist does not require an album to flourish. An album is just for boasting rights and discography.
Through his profession, the young CEO has just dropped one album and one EP since he propelled onto the scene in 2010 with his single, ‘Back When.’ Even during his peak periods of 2013 and 2017, the vocalist by one way or another managed to pass up on the chance. However at this point, he appears to truly be outfitting towards the album.
In any case, we’ve been getting pieces of information that the album is drawing near to culmination. 2019 has additionally been extraordinary for the artist as he continues shooting up his status and fame.
Asa
Album Title: Unknown
Album Status: underway/close?
Asa is one of the first avant-garde musicians to grace the Nigerian music mainstream in modern times. Her capacity to make music is practically similar to no other and her fan base gets that. Whenever she drops albums, they gobble it up like a hot plate of zesty noodles.
Her fan base is additionally committed. Through her profession, she has released three albums; two classics and another one well on its way to becoming a classic. After her last album, Bed of Stone dropped in 2014, she went on a rest that only finished a month back with her most recent single, ‘The Beginning,’ a gripping ballad.
While Asa may have transformed, we scarcely ever see a single without an album effectively out or near being out with Asa. In result, we are practically certain that another Asa album is close or even inevitable.
Wizkid
Album Title: Made In Lagos
Album Status: Close
Wizkid is tease. Right now, he is without a doubt Nigeria’s greatest music export, and that accompanies certain real benefits. He headlines global shows, features on some of the biggest albums, walks the biggest fashion runways alongside other feats.
In recent time, the artist has succeeded at another thing; keeping his fans cheerful before somewhat disillusioning on numerous occasions with his new album, Made in Lagos.
After the arrival of two singles in progression in the last quarter of 2018, many individuals felt they would get the album they were guaranteed in the December of 2018. Clearly, that didn’t occur. Be that as it may, with a portion of his ongoing social media messages, it appears the album will drop any moment from now.
Which of the albums are you sheer excited to listen to when it drops?
