Best New Music: Odunsi (The Engine)–WurlD–Lady Donli–Vector & Masterkraft

Lady Donli - Wonda Wonda ft. Darkovibes

An Overview: Best New Music: Odunsi (The Engine)–WurlD–Lady Donli–Vector & Masterkraft

A lot of great songs –both singles and off-project cuts– was released over the past few days.

As usual, we've brought to you, a run-down of these songs. Fresh as they are.

 

WurlD – CAN'T COME OUTSIDE 

WurlD has always experimented with sounds. His latest tape sees him combing the melodies of two genres, and this song, whose title reads as a message for the times, is a beautiful demonstration of this 'AFROSOUL' sound.

Mōnki Bznzz ft. Mon Lee – Light's Out

It was difficult to choose a song off producer's Mōnki Bznzz's excellent new EP, Banana Peel Vol. 1. But this song, the opener, is strong contender, an EDM appropriating production on which Mon Lee's strong songwriting and delivery shines. Culture-shifting music, this.

Odunsi (The Engine) ft. Amaarae, DETO BLACK & Gigi Atlantis – body count 

Alté royalty Odunsi put out an EP in the middle of last week, Everything You Heard Is True, a bold musical achievement which thrives on the personality of its creator and features. "body count," a clear standout, is not lacking in personality, as the trio of features make it one of the more memorable songs of the year, a true bad bitch anthem. 

DJ Big N, Don Jazzy & Teni – Ife 

This song features the melodious voice of Teni and the warm grit of Don Jazzy's delivery, a truly wonderful listen that'll appeal just about anyone.

Shizzi, Davido & Wale – Won Le Ba

Foremost afrobeats producer teams up with Davido and Nigerian-born American rapper Wale on this bouncy record, an Afro House vibe which inspires great verses from the artist duo.

Vector & Mastaa – Eyan Colgate 

Off the duo of Vector and Masterkraft's forthcoming Crossroads EP, comes this percussion-heavy jam. The project is said to "[adopt signature from all kinds of African sound, fused it nicely with the rhythm and pace that's unique to rap and created a revolution – Rapfrobeat." 

Lady Donli ft. Darkovibes – Wonda Wonda

Lady Donli has teased the release of her latest single for a while now, and it's finally here. "Wonda Wonda" features Ghanaian artist Darkovibes and the vintage Highlife sound Donli is known for is well appropriated in this melodious duet.

Jinmi Abduls & TMXO – Aya 

Lagos-based Jinmi Abduls has always known how to infuse good lover vibes into his music. "Aya," a collaboration with producer TMXO, taps into that appeal, with the warm Afro Pop beat acting as the perfect backdrop to Jinmi's sweet vocals. Additional production was done by the talented Remy Baggins. Jinmi Abduls has also announced he has an EP on the way.

Ayo Jay – Peace of Mind 

Ayo Jay makes a return after 2018's Lazy Genius. "Peace of Mind," as trademark, is laid-back, and Jay's message for this one is peace of mind –though there's a romantic twist to it– surely, something everyone relates to.

Marv OTM & Malik Bawa ft. Zilla Oaks – Jetsk!

Abuja-based collective Apex Village are a force to be reckoned with. Their new-school approach to making music has seen acts like Psycho YP and Zilla Oaks attain mainstream prominence – the latter of those, Zilla, puts in a good account of himself (yet again) on "Jetsk!," a bouncy Trap record off Way Up North, a 5-track EP.

Yinoluu ft. Remy Baggins – Cuckoo 

Off Yinoluu's Lost Files EP. The producer calls up Remy Baggins for this breezy tune, sweet dabbling into the relationship problems. "Girl you drive me cuckoo, cuckoo," Remy sings on the chorus.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
