Uche, a LA-based Nigerian artist, has released his new track Okada,” a captivating afro-beat cut that further establishes the growing multi-hyphenate as a stand-out potential throughout the rap field.
The self-produced instrumental, elevated by addictive percussion and sad guitar licks, emerges as a silken mixture of nostalgic afro-swing, laced with Uche’s deep-rooted poetry touching on poetic justice when investigating a new love interest that blurs the boundary between love and desire. “Have you ever been driven insane by love?” I just want to leave. “Why can’t my home and my sanctuary be the same thing?” With a significant lyrical genius and powerful sound waves, “Okada” will keep the spotlight on Uche as one of the most interesting young talents in the underground.
