Crayon (Nigeria)

The Nigerian act sounds like Reekado Banks and Korede Bello, according to music lovers. A versatile act who is signed to Don Jazzy’s, Mavin Records, he has been described as the new face of Afrobeats with street experience.

He merges elements of pop, afro-oriented sound, Latino music, and Caribbean sounds into his artistry. The riches in lustre that can be felt in his music is why he is called, ‘Crayon.’

Despite not hitting the mark with his 2019 EP, Cray Cray, he is one of the talented folks to look out for this year.
