PHEELZ GOOD II is the highly anticipated new EP from award-winning Nigerian artist, producer, and songwriter Pheelz. After starting 2024 with his songwriting and production work on Usher’s Coming Home album, Pheelz delivers Pheelz Good II to mark the culmination of his critically acclaimed Pheelz Good trilogy series, which began last February. Following the success of his Pheelz Good I EP, and Pheelz Good (Triibe Tape) which birthed fan-favourites Jelo and Joy, this new Phelez Good II EP from Pheelz offers an intimate and unfiltered reflection of the artist’s true self.
Experimenting with various soundscapes, and blending afrobeats with elements of R&B, soul, and hip-hop, the creative process behind Pheelz Good II reveals a transformative experience for Pheelz that saw the hitmaker taking a deep dive into his emotions and experiences to deliver a project that truly reflects his journey and reflections. Each track on the EP tells a unique story, ranging from love and relationships to personal struggles and triumphs, with Pheelz pouring his heart into every part of the EP, even incorporating live instrumentation to add a rich organic feel to the project. Showcasing his artistic versatility and emotional depth, Pheelz Good II is a must-listen for fans and critics alike.
The Pheelz Good II EP opens with Fever, a vibrant and flirtatious track featuring the Queen of afro house Niniola. The song captures the exhilarating rush of meeting someone who takes your breath away, with playful pickup lines and a musical backdrop that’s impossible to resist. Majo, which means “dance” in Yoruba, comes next, calling listeners to enjoy life’s joyous moments. Sparked by the excitement of a friend’s wedding, the track is an energetic celebration anthem inspired by Nigeria’s vibrant ‘Owambe’ parties. The song’s infectious rhythms and lively melodies capture the essence of a true Lagos party, making it perfect and a future staple for any festive occasion.
Speaking about the inspiration behind Pheelz Good II, Pheelz says,
“I want to introduce the world to a new style of afrobeats, and also show people back home another style of interpreting the Afro spirit, as I’ve been doing for over a decade now. ‘Pheelz Good II’ is a hybrid of different other sides of afrobeats. It’s creating a marriage between emotions and the dance floor once again, through the goddess that is afrobeats. This project is an intimate reflection of my true self, where I’m unapologetically me, embracing my vulnerabilities and my ‘crayge’ – that crazy rage within. It’s about fully owning who I am and allowing my audience to connect with the raw, unfiltered version of myself”.
