Mr Eazi is taking it back to where it all began.
The GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY Award-winning star has just unveiled his brand-new EP, Maison Rouge, a project that feels both like a homecoming and a heartfelt love letter to the fans who’ve been with him from day one.
Named after the Cotonou house where he lived while crafting the project, Maison Rouge (French for “Red House”) captures the warmth and nostalgia of Mr Eazi’s early days in the Banku Music era that gave us timeless gems like “Skin Tight” and “Bankulize.”
But this time, he’s added a fresh, modern edge, blending the intimacy of his signature sound with inventive production and deeply personal songwriting.
From the very first track, you can hear Mr Eazi revisiting the soul and simplicity that made his early work so magnetic. The lead single “Violence,” produced by longtime collaborators P.Priime and E.Kelly, glides effortlessly over a mellow Afrobeats groove, romantic, reflective, and unmistakably Eazi.
Then there’s “Make E No Tey,” a sunshine-soaked tune built on rhythmic layers that make it impossible to sit still, and “Busstop,” which channels Ghanaian hiplife energy into a kinetic Afrofusion jam tailor-made for radios, dancefloors, and street parties.

Elsewhere, songs like “Casanova,” a playful yet sincere ode to commitment crafted by TXMO and Kel-P, and “Corny,” an intimate, stripped-back number that tugs gently at the heartstrings, deepen the EP’s emotional pull. Rounding it all out is “Love Me Now,” a track that captures the lush romantic core of the Maison Rouge experience.
With over two billion streams to his name and praise from global outlets like The New York Times, Billboard, and Rolling Stone, Mr Eazi describes Maison Rouge as a reset, a chance to reconnect with the essence of his artistry while evolving his sound.
The seven-track EP is rich with Banku Music textures: fluid percussion, tender guitar riffs, and open, airy arrangements that let each feeling breathe.
