Ọláwálé Ibrahim Ashimi, stage name Brymo, a Yoruba and English singer, songwriter, author and actor/stage performer, who is either in the news for the good or the unbelievable.
His music is a blend of fuji, R&B, pop and rock.
Brymo has always had a passion for music, with his debut album in 2007 which was him testing his wings in the industry.
He got signed on to the Chocolate City record label in 2010 where he released “The Son of a Kapenta” in 2012 and hit singles like Ara, Good Morning, Go Hard amongst others, but the deal went sour in 2013, notwithstanding, he has 11 solid albums under his belt alongside his numerous hit singles, features, compilation and live albums.
Albums such as “The son of a kapenta (2012), Merchants, Dealers & Slaves (2013), Klitoris (2016), Oso (2018) Yellow (2020), to name a few and his most recent album, “Theta” which was released May 2022.
One thing about Brymo and his fans is the fact to, his songs are ageless.
Abdulrazaq Hamzat @fppnigeria said:
“Actually that Merchant, Dealers & slaves is a gateway to this new brymo and the album will forever retain its freshness. I listened to that album, all through 2015, every single day and till date, I still listen to it.
His fans classify him as incredible, some call him a legend.
One of his fans, Chike says it’s hard to pick a favorite song as all his songs touch differently in one way or the other as there’s a connection between you and the song.
There is something about Brymo’s voice that just calms you.
Asa is a pop, indie pop and afrobeat musician with 5 albums, 11 singles, features and appearances with awards and nominations to her name.
The Nigerian-French sensation released her latest album “V” this year.
Her other albums are: Asa (2007), Beautiful Imperfection (2010), Bed of Stone (2014), Lucid (2019), and V (2022).
Travelling the world and sharing the goodness that is her musical endowments with fans who obviously cannot get enough of her.
Fun fact: both artists are not just vocally blessed, they are born performers who also play similar instruments, the keyboard and guitar.
What happens when two multi-talented artists come together to make music?
We can’t wait to find out and currently have our fingers crossed on the magic these two will make when they get together… in the studio.
