Every week, the iMullar staff rounds up ten songs we cannot stop listening to, thus forming the weekly list of songs known as “On Rotation.” You heard these recommendations here first. From the UK to Nigeria, each track from this week’s selections is guaranteed to be a vibe.
1. Bizzy feat Innoss’B – Angelina
Feel the reverberate in your body right from the first beat. The track is for the feet-moving and hip-thrusting audience who are not shy to move to the groove of a beat.
2. Hamza ft. Rema – TOXIC
When two hit-making heavyweights with deep passion and understanding for music hop on a record, you’re guaranteed a banger.
3. Ewoton Ft. Njerae – Rombosa
A budding Kenyan artist bursting into the scene to give the audience a taste of slow whine dancehall jams. Njerae is perfect feature for this record; an artist who adapts expertly on any beat or record.
4. Mélissa Yansané – Quality
Honeyed vocals coupled with mid-tempo rhythmic beat and a catchy melody; a perfect remedy for a whine down after a long day. Her vocals soothe you as you move to flow of the beat.
5. Keddi ft. DarkoVibes – Did It Again
A fierce and energetic record with Keddi’s fast-paced flow and Darkovibes’ dynamic delivery. At one point, the beat just winds down and the listener just enjoys a production with just Keddi’s flow, and hard-hitting bars. The mix of the Ga language and English gives you a taste of the Ghanaian vibrant Hip-Hop scene.
6. Numa & TSIE – Blood In The Water
This is a song that gives a name to the paralyzing space between two people on the precipice of love or loss. It is about the love that exists, and the fear that suffocates it.
7. Brenny – In Denial (M.I.A.)
The song captures the quiet ache of unrequited love. It’s about the emotional weight of waiting for someone who would not return and the slow process of accepting that truth. Brenny doesn’t dramatize the experience but lays it bare with resonating rhythms.
8. Tshegue – MOTO
A record that defines the eccentric and eclectic sound of Tshegue. Their music exudes pulsating rhythms that leaves the listener toggling the loop button after the first listen.
9. Dr3w & Samzii – Lottery
The record is kept afloat by pulsating bass and uptempo drums, allowing Dr3w’s vocals to sync perfectly. His semi high pitched voice adds more emotions to his crooning, as he serenades his lover with sweet words, claiming he hit the lottery with her.
10. King Soundboi – Tinuke
King Soundboi delivers a beautiful record representative of the Nigerian street genre. The record is filled with lyrics that tell the story of life in the Nigerian streets and experiences that birth that birthed the sound.
