Olamide - Lagos Nawa
Nigerian rap legend Olamide stamps his authority on the street‑rooted anthem titled Lagos Nawa, a project that embodies the raw energy, hustle, and vibrant pulse of Lagos life.
His delivery is sharp and commanding, weaving witty Yoruba expressions with rhythmic flows that capture the essence of his street credibility.
The production scatters the bounce of Afrobeats, the grit of Street Pop, and the edge of Hip‑Hop, creating a soundscape that feels both authentic and electrifying.
Lagos Nawa stands as a bold celebration of resilience, identity, and the unstoppable spirit of the city, resonating deeply with listeners who live and breathe the Lagos grind.
