    LEGACY

    First episode since last December and we had to come back heavy. We get into the Headies Rookie of the Year debate, whether Asake and Wizkid’s REAL EP changes anything, Omah Lay gearing up for Clarity of Mind, CKay’s repetitive sound, Phyno’s all-time rap status, Seun Kuti Vs Wizkid and the Man2Man challenge heating up. It’s a packed return episode. Let’s get into it. Can Zaylevelten beat Famous Pluto for Rookie of the Year at the Headies? Does the REAL EP change anything about Asake's plans to drop M$NEY Album? Omah Lay looks ready to drop Clarity of Mind Is Phyno a top 5 Nigerian rapper of all time? Seun Kuti going at Wizkid for days felt unnecessary Can Dave and Tems' Raindance really win a Grammy next year? CKay keeps going back to the same hit formula Mr Eazi’s comeback feels closer than ever Ycee’s “Man2Man” challenge Vs Phenom Quincy 042 had one of the strongest Man2Man challenge entries Reekado Banks hasn’t had a hit in a while, but he’s still dropping quality Jeriq still doesn’t have that standout solo record Wizkid & Asake's Jogodo was an instant hit

    REAL

    We still don’t believe the Wizkid–Asake joint project is actually dropping Wizkid taking shots at Davido’s camp was in bad taste Mavo is the hottest young Nigerian artist since Wizkid 2:02PM in London should win Rap Song of the Year beef aside Nigeria’s music scene is quietly shifting from albums to playlists Khaid’s brand identity feels all over the place Kizz Daniel’s recent music has started sounding too safe TML Vibez dropped three solid projects in 2025 Shallipopi’s 22-track album was way too long Lojay’s album deserved far more recognition than it got Money Constant is a bigger song than Escaladizzy Qing Madi can’t execute the kind of records Teni pulls off A WGFT remix is coming, and it could take the song to another level It’s wild we still don’t have a Burna Boy and Skepta record

    Real Hater feat. Dark Phoenix

    On this episode, we’re joined by Dark Phoenix, the music video producer behind massive visuals like Phyno & Burna Boy’s Do I?, Chike & Mohbad’s Egwu, Wizard Chan’s Fountain, and a long list of Yemi Alade's videos. We break down everything happening in the scene right now: Burna Boy makes great music but continues to disrespect his fans Burna Boy cancels two shows amid media backlash Olamide’s sold-out OVO Wembley Arena show was massive Could Wizkid’s son Champz be the next breakout? He sounds better than Wizkid did at 14 Should artists be collaborating with AI? Fave’s AI version of Intentions upset fans Mavo is blowing up fast but is the hype sustainable? Omah Lay’s comeback single was worth the wait Tems’ surprise EP might be the weakest in her discography Wizkid & OdumoduBlvck dropped Easy With Me at the wrong time Wizkid has relied too heavily on features this year Gunna’s recent Afrobeats features have been underwhelming Did Victony’s Very Stubborn live up to expectations? Nigerian music today has more lamba than depth Young Jonn’s Blue Disco has bangers, but the album is too long Fido doesn’t have that superstar aura yet Flavour isn’t making music for young Nigerians anymore Nigerian male artists who are vocally stronger than the women MAVO’s verse on Body is actually really good NIKOS LIVING’s latest song isn’t great, but there’s room for improvement Should Champz be doing more to promote the EP?

    AFRIKA MAGIK

    A-Q is ready to go at Jesse Jagz Has Davido’s 5IVE tour been a wake-up call for Nigerian artists? Mavo currently has the two biggest songs in Nigeria With You is the biggest song in Nigeria this year Asake shutting down the Red Bull Symphony Orchestra was massive Moliiy’s Shake It to the Max is the biggest Grammy snub Seyi Vibez doesn't need French Montana on the Pressure remix Badshah & Davido’s Wallah Wallah was underwhelming Qing Madi is one of the best singers in Nigeria right now Falz might be struggling to land a hit Wizkid’s son, Champz, dropped snippets that sound really good L.A.X dropped one of the best albums this year but has already moved on too quickly Phyno is leaning more into gospel-leaning music Mr Eazi’s new EP sounds good but won’t get traction Palmwine Music 2 is still the best in the series SDC's Afrika Magik isn’t great, but it’s good enough, they’ve dropped better though. Cosamote's Files '26 finally dropped, and it was worth the wait

    MEAT PIE

    Yung Miami says Tyla’s Chanel ripped off her unreleased song she played for her Tyla is having an incredible 2025 run Davido doing a Nigerian tour is a big win for the culture MAVO’s verse on CKay’s Body might be weak, but the song will still pop Blaqbonez’s No Excuses is easily a top 5 album this year There’s too much music dropping to truly appreciate the good ones, in another era, they’d probably be classics Buju isn’t great at concerts, he performs better in intimate live sessions Asake’s NPR Tiny Desk was good, but we’ve seen better performances from others in the culture FIDO’s issues with his marketing team slowed down his rise BOJ should be way bigger than he currently is Young Jonn’s Cash Flow didn’t live up to its potential Young Jonn needs to switch it up, his recent songs all sound alike Joeboy nails his rollouts, but the songs don’t stick ZERRY DL’s drops this year haven’t impressed ZERRY DL won’t make it to Next Rated Shallipopi’s HIM didn’t live up to the hype Zlatan’s not an album artist and that’s okay Gospel artists shouldn't collaborate with secular artists South Gidi is a fire release and Abangani stands out as the best of the three Five songs that’ll dominate December 2025

    INDUSTRY MACHINE

    On the latest But What Do I Know episode, Jojo is back and the hosts discuss a range of topics from Jojo's apparent 'beef' with Adekunle Gold to the albums that dropped. Catch it all here Odumodu takes more shots at Blaqbonez, will there be a response? Did TML Vibez really betray Seyi Vibez? Davido might have a new hit on the way for December Is the Oblee remix with Wizkid coming too late? Afrobeats Grammy submissions show we’re getting bolder Does Afrobeats need a reset or are we just oversaturated with music? Ladipoe might be chasing a hit right now Tekno’s still chasing another hit but nothing is sticking. Adekunle Gold’s FUJI was good, just not Fuji enough 9ice’s music might be too Yoruba-centric for casual listeners Ayra Starr should be working with more rappers Zaylevelten nailed it with the slangs and production on then 1t g0t crazy Nigerians might’ve moved on from Zinoleesky, but his fanbase still rides Davido’s Holy Water isn’t a hit Famous Pluto’s Hot Hot sounds reheated LOJAY’s XOXO didn’t disappoint, but it didn’t wow either Blaqbonez deserves credit for staying relevant this long INDUSTRY MACHINE starts strong but drags long enough to lose the listener

    FILES feat. Emaxee

    On this episode, we’re joined by Emaxee, co-founder of Notesphere. He shares why the platform was created and his plans for a collective of artists expected to release some of the most exciting music later this year. We also cover the big conversations shaping Afrobeats today, from Odumodu’s claim as Nigeria’s top rapper, to Burna Boy’s run with the best albums amongst the Big 3, Adekunle Gold’s impressive rebrand, the state of Ghanaian music, and the question of whether Mavo is truly ready for a European tour. A deep dive into music, culture, and the business powering it. Is Odumodu the best rapper in Nigeria right now? Burna Boy makes the best albums out of the Big 3 Adekunle Gold’s rebrand is one of the best transitions in Afrobeats Davido’s 2025 features have been under the radar TML Vibez’ new branding could unlock international success Peruzzi should’ve gone on a singles run before dropping an album Fireboy DML finds himself again with Pheelz on their collab EP Mavin Records needs to sign a street artist Is Mavo really ready to tour Europe? Artists need to build a community before going mainstream Odumodu’s social media presence keeps him close to his fans Ghanaian artists can’t thrive until they fully tap into the local scene BWDIK is easily top 3 music podcasts in the culture Odumodu is the new Olamide
