    Episode 15 - Industry Plant

    This week on Underground Unreleased, we're going audio-only but still doing what we do best! First, we break down Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance and debate whether any Afrobeats artist right now could’ve done it better. We talk Davido losing another Grammy to Tyla and what it’ll actually take for a Nigerian artist to win on that stage. We also unpack why Mavin Records artists aren’t connecting like they used to, and whether J. Cole stepping away from Kendrick Lamar changes how we view his legacy.

    Underground or Underground | Episode 13 First episode of 2026. First, we address the gap - Detty December, travel, and why it took a minute to get back behind the mic.

    Episode 13 - Underground or Underground

    First episode of 2026 After a Detty December and a long recording break, we’re back to kick off 2026. On Episode 13, we recorded while the Nigeria vs Morocco match was being played, using the moment to talk pressure, narratives, and expectations. We break down what “underground” really means in Nigerian music; separating upcoming artists from the current Underground rap scene - and question whether that scene is actually pushing culture forward. We also discuss: **Ayra Starr’s image shift and why it isn’t landing **Seun Kuti vs Wizkid FC and stan culture The African categories at the Grammy Awards and why recognition still feels limited Why the The Headies can’t be taken seriously Whether Tyla should be labeled an Afrobeats artist Why delaying the Asake & Wizkid EP may have been the right move And putting listeners onto two songs worth checking out.
