Loud Urban Choir brings “Many People” to the table, and this one actually started as a live performance before it became a proper record.
The group shared a performance compilation video last year showing them taking “Many People” across multiple shows in Lagos and Abuja in the same week. Every room they performed it in went off differently, and that kind of live energy usually tells you something before the studio version even drops.
As an original gospel offering, “Many People” carries that communal, congregation-ready feeling Loud Urban Choir has built their identity on. It’s not a quiet, introspective record.
Coming after covers like “Intentions” and “Back Outside” as original releases, “Many People” shows a different side of what the collective can do when they write from scratch rather than reimagining someone else’s work.
With 168,000 monthly Spotify listeners and a growing reputation built on that Kelly Rowland remix, Loud Urban Choir keeps proving they belong in conversations about Africa’s best choral acts. Stream “Many People” and imagine how it sounds in a packed room.
