Nigerian artist, DJ Cora links up with My Son on a vibrant and culturally flavoured new record titled “Alabi Olembe.”
The record carries that warm and celebratory Yoruba energy from the very first second. So rather than easing you in slowly “Alabi Olembe” announces its cultural identity immediately and commits to it fully throughout.
The production blends contemporary Afrobeats elements with traditional Yoruba sounds in a way that feels natural and unforced. DJ Cora constructs a beat that moves with a festive rhythm while the instrumentation adds a richness that gives the record real character and depth.
My Son steps in and delivers with a vocal performance that suits the cultural direction of the song perfectly. The contribution feels genuine and emotionally connected to the material rather than simply decorative. Meanwhile the chemistry between DJ Cora’s production and My Son’s delivery creates a cohesion that makes the record feel complete.
“Alabi Olembe” works because it does not try to be something it is not. It leans fully into its cultural roots and the confidence of that decision is what makes the record so enjoyable to listen to.
Stream “Alabi Olembe” and let the Yoruba energy do the rest. DJ Cora and My Son deliver a feel-good record that belongs on every Afrobeats playlist right now.
