Add these to your playlists

There’s a good chance you’re already familiar with Wiz Kid, Burna Boy and Davido, the three giants who carved out a lane of their own in the world of music, and ultimately put Afrobeat in the global spotlight.

But that’s not all that the Nigerian-born genre has to offer. As the years’ pass, it continues to grow. More and more artists are making their very own mark onto the scene, and we’re the ultimate fan. Afterall, it’s become the ultimate-pick-me-up. So as we push against the winter blues currently underway, we rounded up some of our favourites for you to listen to.
