If I can make a wish about this playlist, then I’m hoping that the elated mood that took hold of me while I was making it will permeate your spaces. It came from artists like 2 Chainz, Dave, Giggs and Octavian that recently put out compelling projects. It came from the ever-addictive vibes from our homegrown talents — the usual suspects like Burna Boy and R2Bees. And it came from a diverse crop of newcomers that have put me on notice; I’m sure this little peer into their universes will entice to check them out. So do yourselves a solid and press play.
If you’re new to this, every week, I try to put together songs that push the envelope, that are dope and that have lots of replay value. Let these joints make your commute smooth and rock you into reflection and meditation. As always, I’ll be back next week.
