Street-minded act Showbezzy calls up Globalboy Collin, Lami Jnr and Youth God for a loud new record titled “Akata II.” The sequel tag means round two, so the first part must have made some noise.
Sequels in street music usually promise the same rules on a bigger stage. “Akata” is also a loaded word in Nigerian slang, so listeners will read the title in their own way. Three guests join this time, which widens the circle.
Expect a hard drum pattern with a bass that crawls low. Meanwhile, hi-hats skitter along to keep the pace tight.
Showbezzy likely takes the first run with a rough, steady flow. He sounds like a man defending his turf, and his lines stay short. A bit of humour peeks out between the bars.
Globalboy Collin, Lami Jnr and Youth God then take quick turns, each with a different grain. One may sound smoother while another goes louder. Their verses probably cover hustle, loyalty and who respects whom, and a chant hook gives the crowd something to shout.
