Rapper and undeniable Leader of The Revival, Ladipoe, drops a rousing new single titled “Ekwe”, featuring singer-songwriter Adekunle Gold (AG Baby) and record producer Kel P. This comes on the heels of “Compose”, his summery collaboration with new gen singer Taves.
“Ekwe” is a future-nostalgic tune which puts a modern spin on Original Stereoman’s street pop hit “Sample Ekwe”. The song’s larger-than-life intro is reminiscent of the noise in an arena right before the entrance of a reigning champion, setting the scene for the masterclass about to be delivered by the two artists. The thrilling, high-octane instrumental draws inspiration from the Afrobeat party bangers of the 2010s, acting as the perfect accompaniment for song’s cavalier lyricism and lavish imagery.
“Ekwe” is a celebratory tune perfect for any Detty December playlist, amping up the tempo on what has already been a prolific year for Ladipoe. To listen, click here.
