Hurricane Wisdom Taps Into Afrobeats With “Living Up”

Hurricane Wisdom is expanding his sound, stepping into a more global space with his latest single “Living Up.” Inspired by his recent trip to Nigeria, the track sees the rising US rapper blend his signature melodic rap style with Afrobeats elements, creating a smooth, feel-good record that leans into celebration and growth.

Produced by Nigerian hitmaker Rugged, the song carries vibrant percussion, log drums, and catchy melodies, while Hurricane’s delivery remains laid-back yet confident. It’s a natural crossover that doesn’t feel forced, but rather like an artist exploring new territory while staying true to himself.

The accompanying visuals, shot in Lagos, bring the concept to life. From street scenes to cultural moments, the video adds depth to the track, highlighting connection, movement, and the influence of African sound on a global stage.

“Living Up” feels like more than just a single — it signals a shift. Hurricane Wisdom isn’t just making music for his home base anymore, he’s clearly aiming for a wider, international audience. 🌍🔥

Jemapelle James steps back into the spotlight with his latest single “Yoh” featuring Sishii, and it’s a heartfelt offering that leans deep into nostalgia and emotion.

The track blends warm chords, rich harmonies, and familiar drum patterns, pulling from 90s and early 2000s South African influences while still sounding fresh. It’s a heartbreak record, but one that feels comforting and rooted in home, identity, and shared musical experiences.

Sishii’s contribution adds the perfect emotional balance, turning the song into more than just a solo expression. Their chemistry makes “Yoh” feel like something meant to be experienced live, not just streamed.

This release forms part of Jemapelle James’ Road to Superstardom journey, as he continues to build a sound centered on authenticity, storytelling, and connection.

“Yoh” is out now on all major streaming platforms.

The Big Hash just closed a major chapter.

“Love Is A Star” is officially done. No long speech, no rollout gimmicks — just a simple post: “Project 100% done.” And that was enough to shake things.

The Big Hash Wraps ‘Love Is A Star’ With Kabza De Small & Sly

This isn’t just another drop. It’s a moment. Hash has been hinting at this since January, calling it the biggest play of his career, and the lineup backs it. Kabza De Small on the sound, Sly on the musical direction, and Blxckie adding that extra edge.

The snippets already floating around, especially “Ngcono,” are pointing in one direction — a clean fusion of hip-hop, R&B, and amapiano. Not forced. Not experimental for the sake of it. Just artists in sync.

This feels like Hash stepping into a bigger room. And if the energy online is anything to go by, “Love Is A Star” isn’t just a project — it’s about to be a moment.
