Another single is “Gbemilo” with Nigerian street-hop artist and songwriter Danny S.

After releasing his most recent track, “Low Key,” Danny S goes down a faith-filled path with a title that comes from the Yoruba word for God. The theological meaning of “Oloun” is a different subject from the street-oriented stuff that has defined much of his career.

The release also emphasizes the significance of local language in Nigerian music. Danny S has always incorporated Yoruba idioms into his records, making the language an intrinsic part of his compositional character, rather than a periodic artistic choice.

Danny S has been a fixture in the Nigerian street-hop scene for more than a decade, and his latest effort has an audience primed for it, already familiar with him from the massive success of “Ege (Dribble).” With its two-song format, listeners also have a chance to hear another direction in his ever-growing collection.

The single appears on all major digital streaming platforms with ‘Gbemilo.‘ Listen to the two recordings and share your thoughts in the comments below
