Daily declaration for this week: It’s cold outside, stay guarded – Timaya, 2021.
Cold Outside – Timaya ft Buju
Timaya’s new bop is about the need for solitude because nobody really cares about your problems. Subtle reminder to move militant this week, the streets is cold.
Simi – Woman
Drawing inspiration from Fela Kuti’s music, Simi weaves this tune about women’s woes in society today, despite achieving unimaginable feats in their personal lives and careers. A must-listen for everyone.
Rosemary – Savage ft Victony
‘Baby you go finish me, Baby I go finish you too’….is the latest sound making rounds on TikTok and we are loving it. Savage features Victony on this song about a certain Rosemary whose love drives them crazy. Dope track!
Eze Ego – Keyz Emmanuel ft Kida Kudz
If you need a song to gas you up to get your money up this week, here you go. The catchy lyrics rest on a rich deep baseline that will have you keeping it on repeat all day.
Real (Oscar Mbo Remix) – Tim Lyre
Tim Lyre shares the US shuffling house take on his original single ‘Real’ featuring South African DJ Oscar Mbo who layers Tim’s vocals with upbeat house elements, turning the already dynamic bop into a head bobbing tune while also maintaining the emotional essence in Tim’s lyricism.
Rodman Style/Dre’s Interlude – Prettyboy DO
We love Prettyboy Do’s music, and his sense of humor a lot more. This funky 2000s inspired track off his new album Love Is War kicks off with a funny Nollywood audio clip and we immediately hear Prettyboy roll out self-eulogizing lines. Dare also makes an appearance on the interlude with a short freestyle. Easily a favorite off the album.
Move – Badboy Timz
Timz is back and he makes it clear that he’s only here for the good vibes, distancing himself from drama and focusing on his bag. Big mood!
Gimmie – Diamond Platnumz ft Rema
Of course, we wouldn’t leave you without a groovy tune to whine your waist to. You wouldn’t know what to expect from a Rema-Diamond Platnumz combo until you listen to it. We are stuck on it too.
