A major coordinated distribution push via ONErpm highlights six new Nigerian albums and EPs, bridging gritty street-level ambition with profound expressions of faith and worship.
AnEndlessOcean: FREEDOM
Leading the high-profile releases, Nigerian contemporary gospel artist AnEndlessOcean (AEO), born Ayobami Alli Hakeem, returns with his expansive 14-track album, FREEDOM.
Inspired by John 8:36, the project explores spiritual liberation, surrender, gratitude and more.
Sonically stepping into new territory, AEO recruits an eclectic lineup of features, including Ryan Ofei, Saelem, veteran singer Wale Adenuga and Bolu Ajayi.
Gabriel Eziashi: Living Testimony
UK-based Nigerian gospel powerhouse Gabriel Eziashi marks over two decades in ministry with his nine-track album, Living Testimony. Born in Lagos, the vocal coach and author blends passionate delivery with declarative worship on tracks like “Holy Ghost Fire” and “Ikuku,” transforming personal testimonies of God’s faithfulness into congregational praise.
FaymOfficial: Nigeria 2 America
Shifting from the pulpit to the street-hop grind, FaymOfficial (Favour Agboma Yuma Michael), who first broke out in 2016 alongside Burna Boy, returns with a seven-track EP titled Nigeria 2 America. Moving between unyielding ambition on “Intentional” and romantic friction on “Let Go,” the project balances the gritty realities of hustle with the pursuit of a larger life.
Saelem: Locked In
Nigerian gospel artist Saelem delivers his deeply reflective debut album, Locked In. Grounded in everyday human experiences of pain, doubt, and hope, the project chronicles a personal journey toward spiritual growth, highlighted by tracks like the retrospective “W.I.F.D” (“Where I For Dey”).
Runda: Okafor’s Law
Independent artist Runda, hailing from the Pen-Cinema area of Agege, Lagos, blends Afrobeats, R&B, and soul on his new EP, Okafor’s Law.
Balancing street survival and divine gratitude on tracks like “Rundyy Sound” and “Happy Day” with romantic cuts like “Adúmáradán,” the project captures the duality of hustle and affection.
Enzzy Boi: The Future
Closing out the drops, Oluwole Enoch Temitope, known as Enzzy Boi, steps forward with his new EP, The Future. Fusing traditional Afro-rhythms with contemporary street pop, the project features declarations of purpose on “Chosen” and financial determination on “One Loader”.
All the music is distributed via ONErpm.
