Afrobeats rising artiste, Mo’believe has released his first single, Père off forthcoming emPawa Africa – powered project, Odu which is scheduled to be released soon.
On this new track, Mo’Believe fuses captivating harmonies, well-struck talking drum, profound melodies, and a carefree expression into one dazzling song while becoming one of the most uncompromising Afrobeats artists of our era. He uses Yoruba language and his silky voice to highlight the importance of a good time with real friends, family, liquor, good African food and of course the incredible African music supplied by himself.
With the bright textures and melodies delivered in a local dialect on the tape’s lead single, music fans can anticipate more music that instantly invites feelings of euphoria. This latest track flaunts Mo’believe rare abilities to create music that not only resonates with our culture, but also provides a purposeful escape.
Mo’Believe describes his music as ‘new school tungba’ on his latest single. Having spent most of his life in Lagos, Nigeria, Mo’believe draws inspiration from the indigenous Owambe party culture sound which he translates into his music. His music is delivered mostly in Yoruba and accompanied by the heavy percussion of Juju music.
Though the recent global-crossover of music of African origin might tempt others to imbibe more foreign influences, Père maintains Mo’Believe’s urban folk approach to music – just like when he debuted in 2018 with his breakout project, Ariwo Eko.
