Afropop veteran Iyanya is set to kick off a new musical chapter this Friday with the release of Sorry, his latest single featuring fast-rising act Fido.
The track will serve as the official lead single from his forthcoming album, The Forester’s Son, due out on September 19.
As the project’s first offering, Sorry is expected to showcase a more personal side of Iyanya while retaining the vibrant rhythms and melodies that have made him one of Afrobeats’ most reliable hitmakers.
With Fido’s fresh energy complementing Iyanya’s seasoned artistry, the collaboration is already tipped to strike a chord with both loyal fans and new listeners.
The upcoming album, The Forester’s Son, is stacked with star power, featuring appearances from Reekado Banks, Ice Prince, BoySpyce, Berri-Tiga, Shoday, Magnito, Mia Guisse, and Moonlight Afriqa. From rap-heavy verses to smooth Afro-fusion, the project promises a diverse listening experience that bridges eras of Afrobeats.
For Iyanya, who first captured hearts with Kukere and has remained consistent through the years, Sorry isn’t just another single — it’s the start of a statement-making era.
