WURLD RELEASES HIS EXTENDED PLAYLIST AFROSOUL ALBUM, STREAM AND DOWNLOAD.
Wurld Afrosoul Full EP – Nigerian singer-songwriter, WurlD finally drops his highly anticipated EP, Afrosoul.
Showing significant levels of work rate, this is his third full-length release in 18? months, ‘Afrosoul’ emerges as a thrillingly sophisticated and layered collection.
WurlD’s soulful vocal performance effortlessly glides overproduction styles that dip between R&B and Pop, underpinned by deep African rhythms and finely worked Jazz elements. Including the COLORS-backed “Ghost Town”, which has amassed over 180K views in its first week, “Love Nobody” and recent release “Wayo” as well as four other unreleased tracks.
The Lagos-born artiste has crafted a significant statement of his ability, and with it, establishes himself as a new vanguard of the Afropop movement.
From saxophone-laced groove “National Anthem”, to the Afrobeat jumper “Story” to the soulful, “Birthday Song/Palmwine Riddim” with its sprawling, sonorous Fuji roots, the EP is marked by WurlD’s penmanship, underlining his credits on hits for the likes of B.O.B, Davido and Akon in his precocious career so far.
WurlD describes the project as:
A fusion of Afrobeat and Electronic/Soul vibes, and positions the project as one which “further defines my unique sound and ability to connect with my fans in vast regions.
He has crafted a project rich in sounds, substance, and emotional depth, one that validates and reinforces the early promise from heavyweight tastemakers including The Fader, Vibe, and Okay Africa.
The swift capture of over 40M streams worldwide points to the kind of gravitas that WurlD is commanding even at this stage.
The petrol blue-haired maverick continues to define himself as one of the trendsetting artists rising out of Africa right now. Be sure to keep your eyes and ears on him as he ascends to greater heights in 2020.
