The lockdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic may have eased up in some parts of the world but the gospel of safety is still being preached on a daily basis. In most parts of Nigeria, the lockdown has been lifted for economic reasons even as cases remain on the rise. Most people are already returning to their regular programming; shuffling between work and other businesses.

Everyone looks forward to the weekend as it is a time to relax, recharge and prepare for what’s coming in the week ahead. What better way to do all that than with the hottest African songs of the moment.

Artists like Ghanaian singer KiDi are adapting to the times and getting innovative with their music videos as he shot Say Cheese at home while featuring videos of his fans participating in his music challenge on social media. KiDi also released an EP that anyone can vibe to while staying safe. The EP contains mellow R&B songs with a mash of highlife and Disco, and we have to say, we’re in love with it.

Alté singer and producer Odunsi (The Engine) released his EP “Everything you Heard is True,” and in it was Body Count, a song many have referred to as the alternative collaboration of the year. Why is that? You have to keep reading to find out.

On the collaborative end, Shizzi, Davido, and Wale believe that you can’t meet up with them if you try to compete in Won Le Ba. Samklef and Victor AD want us to Give Thanks and celebrate with even those that try to bring us down.
