Though Nigeria’s falsetto songster released as many singles throughout 2021, it\u2019s a welcome package of songwriting for fans who were missing a deeper dive into Buju\u2019s smoothed out afrobeats. Sorry I’m Late <\/em>kicks off with track \u201cDaniel Benson\u201d, Buju\u2019s given name, proclaiming, <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou know my riddim on fire. You know my sound is on fire. The melody is on fire, and I don\u2019t stop, I don’t tire<\/em>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Buju has a thing or two to brag about, coming off major collabs with WizKid on “Mood<\/a>” and Ladipoe on “Feeling<\/a>” whose video went No. 1 in Nigeria. Buju has also had the honor of working with African Giant Burna Boy<\/a> and Zlatan<\/a> who just announced his new album. This EP invites the forerunner of highlife fusion The Cavemen on \u201cOgechukwu\u201d for a much appreciated collab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Highlights on the EP include \u201cKilometer\u201d produced by Rexxie<\/a>, bringing in the log-drum that shook waves through the afrobeats scene on \u201cKPK (Ko Por Ke)\u201d with Mohbad. The Steph produced \u201cI Do\u201d also brings a deep R&B lick that is a perfect compliment for Buju\u2019s poised delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Overall it\u2019s a dense and welcome project. Buju, the wait is forgiven. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sorry I’m Late<\/a><\/em> by Buju, out on all platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Listen to “Sorry I’m late” in our One Dance playlist on Spotify<\/a> and Deezer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
