Five years ago, talented Nigerian soul singer and songwriter Bez released his debut album ” Super Sun ”, which launchd him into Nigeria music industry, but right now he’s coming out with another masterpiece body of work with rare sound.

About few days ago, the talented singer Bez unveiled his latest album cover, the track list, and a video detailing the amazing story behind the making of his sophomore album, ” Gbagyi Child ”.

On his Instagram, Bez detailed the journey of an album that has been 3 years in the making:

“In 2013, a reconnection with my hometown Karu, and the local music being played triggered an idea that would create a direction for my sophomore album and I began to create music with a friend.

In a dingy studio apartment where we worked, somewhere on the streets of Lagos Nigeria, I thought of a way to merge the local sounds with the urban inspiration I derived from other parts of the world.

Also speaking about how his masterpiece came together, Bez continued:

“Armed with a laptop and 2 KSM 137 microphones, we gathered the best local instrumentalists in the land for a 3-hour session of pure magic.

These sounds travelled across the seas with my band and I to New York where the recording process continued, then to Houston Texas and Nashville Tennessee to be sprinkled with the magic dust of great horns, percussions and crunchy electric guitars.

In 2015, the sounds came back to Lagos where all the pieces were woven together intricately, to create the masterpiece that is the Gbagyi Child album.”

I shared this inspiration with creative genius Cobhams Asuquo, and together we hopped on a plane and set off to the quiet village of lush greens, nestled in the outskirts of Abuja.

His latest album is a 13-track album with collaboration from two of Nigeria’s most talented singers, Yemi Alade and Simi and is set to be released on November 28 – we can’t wait to see if the album is as good as the story that comes with it.
