Diversification is the new cool in the Nigerian music industry and it’s not surprising that artists are wearing it so well. In the past decade, we’ve witnessed an influx of unpopular sounds now making rounds in the mainstream. As a producer with tentacles spread far and near, Del B is contributing to the evolution of the industry and on his latest, a spirited team effort with Grammy award winner, Walshy Fire, titled Consider, he capitalizes on this with a serious nod to our culture.
The Highlife, Afropop, and Soca hybrid is powered by Wizkid who handles the Afropop aspect with finesse, Flavour, whose Highlife expertise is the cultural caress the song needs, and Kes, the Jamaican band that lights Walshy Fire’s Soca sounds on fire. Together, they stand as a group of trailblazers, considering the Afro-Soca genre is still novel, evoking cultural vibes while adding contemporary touches.
Despite, the need to evolve and be nonconforming, Del B and Walshy Fire manage to uphold their heritage and adhere to the foundation of mainstream music with this upbeat single headed for the permanent spots on turntables and relevant playlists.
