After years of creating a place for himself among the best names in Afrobeats, Nonso Amadi delivers a long awaited debut album. This record is an upbeat reflection on his gratitude for his success and what matters most. Having roots in production, Nonso expertly blends R&B, afro pop and dancehall while taking inspiration from staples in the Nigerian music scene like Rema, Wizkid and Niniola. He is at his most confident yet most humble now that his work has bloomed beautifully.
