Obongjayar

Raised in Calabar, Nigeria, before moving to London as a teen, Obongjayar’s sound is a singular blend of the worlds he moves through. Working with everyone from Jeshi to Little Simz to Pa Salieu, Obongjayar is famed for his distinct fusion of global pop melodies grounded with West African inflections, alongside his mesmerizing live performances and his innate punk sensibilities. It won him an Ivor Novello for his singular pen and earned him a Top 5 single with over 225 million streams for his feature on Fred Again...’s “adore u,” which heavily samples Obongjayar's original "I Wish It Was Me".

With fans in the likes of i-D, Dazed, Crack, The Guardian and NPR already for his critically acclaimed debut Some Nights I Dream Of Doors, Obongjayar’s highly anticipated follow up Paradise Now sees him primed and ready to live (and thrive) in the moment. Grappling with everything from self- acceptance and transcendence to grief and loneliness, FOMO, procrastinations and nights you never want to end, it’s an adventure through the subconscious of one of the UK’s most thrilling modern voices. Produced between London and LA with Kwes Darko (Pa Salieu, John Glacier), Yeti Beats (Doja Cat) and Beach Noise (Kendrick Lamar, Baby Keem, Bakar), it’s a Trojan horse of some of his most intimate storytelling yet, candy-coated in electro-pop synths, soaring strings and ever contagious percussion.
