Omah Lay is charting a major course for himself. In his debut album Boy Alone, the Nigerian music artiste told stories revolving around his formative years in Port Harcourt, finding fame, and surviving heartbreak. The highly anticipated deluxe edition of Boy Alone is an extension of his ability to create thought-provoking tracks with soulful, romantic, and erotic themes
The expanded album is a testament to Omah Lay’s musical prowess and displays his extraordinary ability to create music with lyrics that resonate with his fans. Hailed as the album of the year upon its release last year, the album became the stepping stone and the origin of a disruptive afrobeats genre known as afro-depression with Omah Lay as its pioneer.
The Boy Alone deluxe edition includes six additional tracks, an expansion of the original album. As he did with Boy Alone; infusing his native lingo, and provocative storytelling with emotive takes on love, romance, and sex, Omah Lay delivers the same prowess on Reason, Joanna, Soso remix starring Ozuna, It’s Yours, Come Closer, and mid-tempo Imagine featuring Aitch
The extraordinary production value of the original album is carried over into Boy Alone Deluxe. Omah Lay works with a wide range of outstanding producers; Tempoe, P2J, Niphkeys, BGRZ, Orlandoh, P2J, P. Prime, and Niphkeys. Their combined efforts increase the album’s sound diversity and guarantee that listeners will have an engaging listening experience.
On Boy Alone Deluxe, Omah Lay reaffirms his position as a force to be reckoned with in the African music industry with his capacity to create enthralling melodies, thought-provoking lyrics, and genre-defying songs that keep delighting his fans and listeners.
