True to its name, the 9-track EP opens with a recorded phone conversation in which Muyiwa reaches out to his partner-in-crime Rhye and convinces him to work with him on this project. This, however, is just the first of five conversations in the project, each one recorded over the instrumental of the following record. Through these conversations and records, these artists present a soulful realness and detailing to their realities as youths and young creatives in this country.

This is, therefore, a highly relatable project as the pair rap and discusses topics and themes that every twenty-something in this city should familiar with. As mentioned earlier, this EP is solely produced by Trill Xoe and engineered by David Rotimi. Enjoy.

Rema Continues His String Of Weekly Releases With ‘Woman’
Rema is adding another locket to his string of weekly releases with this latest single ‘Woman’. The past couple of weeks have been quite a busy one for the Mavin golden boy. Two weeks ago, after clinching his first BET nomination and being tapped as Apple Music’s “Up Next”, Rema crowned that week with a profession of love, ‘Ginger Me’. Last week, he took us back to the roots, unleashing the trap Rema as he hopped on Jay-Z’s 1996 classic ‘Dead Presidents’. Throughout the track he titled ‘Alien’, Rema was in his element, spazzing on the classic instrumental which has been spiced up with a trap bounce.
And now, Rema attempts to recreate that Dumebi magic with this week’s release as he takes a stab at amapiano spiced with afropop elements on ‘Woman’. “Another banger!” he prophetically declares right at its beginning. Across the record, Rema paints himself as a patent hedonist or womanizer, and he’s enjoying every bit of it. “I too like woman” he openly declares, before going on to narrate his ordeal with different women. It’s so cool to see how sharply Rema has evolved from the shy admirer to a flagrant playboy, and we are here for it.
With the frequency of these releases, one wouldn’t be wrong to suspect a project on the horizon. And we are quite sure we won’t have to wait too long for that.
Listen to the new single above.

Listen To Show Dem Camp’s New Album, “The Palmwine Express”
Palmwine season here again! Iconic Nigerian hip-hop duo, Show Dem Camp has released the third instalment in the Palmwine Music series “The Palmwine Express”, earlier today, December 13. This project comes just about 12 months after their year-opening tape, “These Buhari Times,” a pristine hip-hop full-length which many swear is the best Nigerian rap project of 2019. This project was premiered on the PGM Radio Show With Douglas Jekan on Wednesday, December 11.
Show Dem Camp kicked off the Palmwine Music series in 2017 with a 6-track EP that featured appearances from Odunsi (The Engine), BOJ, Funbi, Ladipoe and Ajebutter 22. Following the success of that tape, they also launched their annual Palmwine Music Festival that same year. In 2018, the duo released the second instalment of the series, a 10-track project this time, with an expansive guest list that includes Nonso Amadi, Moelogo, Tomi Agape, Worlasi, Flash, Burna Boy, and Falana. Frequent collaborators, BOJ, Ajebutter 22 and Ladipoe also reappeared on “Palmwine Music 2.”
On this highly collaborative, Spax-produced 12-track album, Show Dem Camp brings along a host of friends, frequent collaborators and other super gifted acts. Across the album, you’d be hearing the familiar vocal contributions of Funbi, Nonso Amadi, Boj, Moelogo and Tomi Thomas who had all appeared either on Palmwine Music 1 or 2. The Palmwine Music first-timers featured on this project include Tems, Amaarae, Wani, Fasina, Buju and Nsikaka David.
The accompanying Palmwine Music Fest is scheduled to hold on Saturday, December 28 at the Muri Okunlola Park.
Listen to the album here.
