LUNGU BOY
by ASAKE

LUNGU BOY is the third album from Nigerian superstar Asake, released 9 August 2024, and the follow-up to his 2023 UK Top 20 album Work Of Art.

Showcasing Asake's signature blend of Afrobeats, Amapiano, hip-hop, and highlife, each track on the album tells a story, weaving personal experiences with universal themes of love, struggle, and triumph. 

LUNGU BOY features collaborations with some of the biggest names in the music industry, Wizkid steps up to open the album on MMS, Travis Scott makes an appearance on single ACTIVE, while team-ups with Stormzy on Suru and Central Cee on Wave propel the record on.

Identifying with the sights and sounds of Lagos (Eko, Lagos Island, Idumota Street), London (Hackney, Shoreditch, Brixton, Peckham), and New York (Brooklyn, Harlem), the album  narrates the transition of Asake, from growing up on the streets of Lagos to becoming a global icon living in urban cities around the world.
