Artistes of the Week:
Hey there! It’s another week in June, and it’s reeking with good music! Here are a few of our favs in the week so far!
Shaiboy - Fa Mi Lo

Last Thursday, Shaiboy stormed the yard with his new Pop/R&B single “Fa Mi Lo”. Fa mi Lo, is simply what you’d call “good music”. This track is incredible, and the first thing that grabs your attention is the beat. The rhythm feels like a recollection of the greatest pop music era, circa 2015. Like a major Lazer feature you know you’re about to fall in love with. “Fa mi Lo” is a song that’s easy to fall into and get wrapped up inside. The vocals are a perfect match as Shaiboy expertly mixes a Nigerian style (language, tone and aura) with a foreign melody, done so well it melts your heart away, keeping it nostalgic and beautiful. Check out “Fa mi Lo” and watch how many times you hit replay
