It’s common practice for musicians to explore socioeconomic narratives as they grow in the industry. For Zarion Uti, the Atlanta based Nigerian singer with a dream to rule the mainstream cross continentally, this is the appropriate next step since he landed a spot on emPawa’s 30 list. He takes the route on his latest single, the Brym produced Money.
Hovering in the aural pleasing intersection between Afrobeat and Pop known informally as Afrofusion, Zarion Uti paints a vivid scene of his rise to the top rid with struggles he no longer wants to face. By all indications, his goal is to make the most of his fame, financially, a price he knows he will have to pay for an unbridled public presence.
