Entrenched and involved with fashion and streetwear, Smallgod has been involved with Daily Paper, the Netherland based streetwear brand which has all contributed to an ability to blend various sonic styles of Africa and the diaspora on the afro-fusion album.

Following a successful year with the Building Brigde’s album racking up 10m+ streams across DSPs – Smallgod is preparing to give us the Christmas soundtrack, titled 2000 curated alongside, South & West African royalty Major League Djz & Guiltybeatz and vocaled by 4PLAY (NSG’s) new recruit WES7AR 22 and the face of Amapiano music Uncle Vinny. 2000 gives us all the elements of an Amapiano banger!

Ice Prince ft. Ckay – Shakara

Formidable Nigerian rapper Ice Prince is back with a clean and harmonic single, “Shakara” with global emo-afrobeat sensation Ckay. The sensual song is an afro-pop twined with a ballad for a woman’s “wash” effect.

The emotional Afro-Pop single is produced by Blaise Beatz, who has worked with notable artists like Wizkid (Pami) and Adekunle Gold (Sinner). The love song sees a captivating experience over rhythmic harmonies with heartfelt lyrics. “Shakara” is Ckay’s first single since his 2019 single ‘’Love Nwantiti’’ peaked on the Billboard charts and became a worldwide hit.
