MV, the rising star you need on your playlist debuts Never Leave. 
MV – Never LeaveAfro-fusion has always been about combining sounds, culture and vibes into something magnetic, and MV, embodies this with precision and truth.
Born as Mike Vocalz, the raving genius hails from the streets of East London, and his modus operandi is not just to fill the blanks as another artiste hungry for fame without a vision, but a movement to uniquely embody the glory of the fusion world.
His latest single, Never Leave, is a full display of this fusion, an afrobeat rhythm that holds back old romance, guaranteed to stick in your mind long after the first play.
It was produced in 2019 with UK producer Shola, Never Leave carries the DNA of classic afrobeats while patching it’s charm with modern music style. It is a gold blend of live and programmed instruments, brought to life by a saxophone solo that could rival the greats and a call-and-response hook that mirrors Fela Kuti’s ancient craftsmanship. Fast forward to 2024, and the accompanying music video shed more beauty to it’s nostalgic appeal. From the dancers, vibrant 70s aesthetics, and a cinematic romance unfolding on screen, the visuals are as compelling as the sound.
But MV isn’t just about the music, he has a legacy to show the world. At 21, he stepped into his music destiny with the focus of combining raw East London style, his Naja roots – all to form a global perspective.
Likewise, he draws inspiration from Afro stars like Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Asake. More to it is MV as a great storyteller whose rhythm, compliments his heavy baritone into tracks that are both authentic and great. His education in music and mastery of multiple instruments only sharpen his creative edge, ensuring his sound stands out in a crowded industry.
Never Leave isn’t just a track, it is MV inking his own lane in afro-fusion and reminding his listeners that the genre’s strength lies in its ability to evolve while staying true to its roots.
