On a course to walk the talk, he has compiled a catalogue of serenading songs of affection, obsession and expression. ‘Jailer’ is one of many of these satisfying Afrobeat masterpieces, highlighting the desires of a singing man passionately living his escapades through music. Jailer laid bare the vulnerability of love cascading into obsession, a willful state of victimhood for crumbs of attention.
UK’s finest, Central Cee teamed up with American rapper, Sexy Red to deliver an unusual sound. This is not the first time artistes from both countries have collaborated on a song, but this is first time such collaboration will result in Afrobeats
Afrobeat’s rise to the world stage is the outcome of years of hard work, and refinement by its prominent faces. Artistes whom through their unique voices, lyrical acumen, and wielding of this genre have elevated it to the peak of global music. Wizkid, Burna, Davido, to name but a few, contributed immensely to the propagation of this African sound, spreading like a wildfire in the last couple of years.
Central Cee and Sexy Redd have been caught in this wildfire, delivering the African medley in a groovy tempo rich in vocal infusion, of love, appraisal and possession.
Definitely a Summer song.
