SOEY drops new single, Ashawo Boy
Adelakun Akinkumi Abisoye, professionally known as SOEY, is a dynamic, rising Afrobeat musician, well-versed in the art of gifting listeners infectious rhythms and emotionally conscious lyrics.
SOEY’s music blends traditional Nigerian sounds with modern influences from the fusion of Afrobeat with elements of highlife, R&B and Alte, creating this vibrant and engaging experience.
On his latest track, ‘Ashawo Boy’, Juju music and Afro jazz take centre stage. This song is filled with a sweet softness that envelopes you on the first note. SOEY, the artist, holds a unique voice that cements it all; a gritty texture with an unmistakable sweetness.
As he blesses listeners with subtly beautiful harmonies, floating adlibs, and an eargasm of a rhythm, he glides on the music like it’s a runway, his voice the star of the show. Light yet warm and deep, the music has you feeling like you’re in the midst of a samba festival yet in the thick of authentic African music.
It’s a fusion of everything: Afrobeats, soul, jazz, and juju music. So run, don’t walk, and check out SOEY and his cool new track ‘Ashawo Boy’!
