The project takes its title from a significant period in Kunmie’s life, representing the age when he began to fully understand and embrace his artistic identity.

Following the success of his breakout record Arike, the album gives listeners a much closer look at the experiences that shaped him, including the bold decision to leave home at 16 in pursuit of his musical ambitions.

Sonically, 22 sits at the intersection of Afro-soul, R&B, and modern African pop. Warm acoustic elements, atmospheric keys, and layered vocals create a soft but detailed backdrop for Kunmie’s expressive delivery.

His distinctive voice remains at the center of the project, carrying the emotional weight of each record with a natural sense of vulnerability.

The album also brings together an impressive collection of collaborators, with Zlatan, Phyno, Lojay, Wizard Chan and Joeboy adding their individual styles to different moments across the project.

Beyond its sound, 22 feels deeply autobiographical. Kunmie uses the album to reflect on growing into adulthood, chasing ambition, dealing with heartbreak, and maintaining faith while navigating the uncertainties that come with success.

The rapid attention surrounding his music also becomes part of the story. Rather than presenting himself as someone who has everything figured out, Kunmie explores the pressure, self-doubt and vulnerability that can accompany a sudden rise, turning those experiences into honest songwriting.

At its core, 22 is a reflection of perseverance and self-discovery. The album allows Kunmie to move beyond the recognition of his breakout records and establish himself through a fuller, more personal body of work.

Now available across major streaming platforms, 22 introduces Kunmie as an artist with a clear sense of identity, emotional depth and a story that extends far beyond the hits that first brought him into the spotlight.

The release follows his recent collaboration with ODUMODUBLVCK on MOTION SICKNESS, but this time Zlatan takes centre stage alone, delivering a record designed to keep the streets moving and the dancefloors busy.

Produced by PuffyBeatz and Chech, ITALAWA runs on a fast-paced blend of Amapiano log drums and Yoruba-inspired percussion. The production is intentionally loud and restless, creating the perfect backdrop for Zlatan’s animated delivery, rapid chants, trademark ad-libs, and punchy one-liners.

The title itself carries a strong street message. ITALAWA, a Yoruba expression commonly used to signal being outside and present, becomes a statement of confidence, survival, and staying firmly in the game. Zlatan uses the record to celebrate financial progress, resilience, and the everyday hustler while throwing playful shots at those who doubt his journey.

As expected, the rapper keeps the energy high throughout, weaving street wisdom, humour, and catchy phrases into a performance that feels almost impossible to sit still to. The song’s frantic rhythm also gives it the kind of infectious quality that could easily inspire a new dance trend across social media.

With ITALAWA, Zlatan once again leans into the cultural energy that has made him one of Lagos’ most recognisable street-pop voices. Rather than overthinking the formula, he simply delivers what his audience knows him for: loud energy, street language, infectious rhythm, and plenty of confidence.

The street-hop star is set to return to his alma mater, Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, on July 1 for an event tagged “Homecoming.” More than just a concert, the occasion will also mark the unveiling of a brand-new music studio designed to help students and aspiring entertainers develop their creative skills.

News of Zlatan’s return generated excitement across the campus, with students, staff, and fans turning out in large numbers to welcome the award-winning artist back to the institution where he once studied.

Fans can expect an energetic performance featuring some of Zlatan’s biggest records, while there is also speculation that he could be joined by some surprise guest artistes during the July 1 event.

Away from the music, the highlight of the homecoming is expected to be the launch of the on-campus recording studio.

The facility will be equipped with professional-grade recording equipment and is intended to serve as a creative hub for students interested in music production, recording, and content creation.

By removing some of the financial barriers that often stand in the way of emerging talent, the initiative is expected to provide young creatives with a platform to learn, experiment, and bring their ideas to life.

For Zlatan, the project represents more than a return to familiar grounds—it is an opportunity to invest in the next generation and inspire future stars from the same campus where his own story began.

Dropped on May 29, 2026, the project arrives as a bold statement of intent, showcasing an artist steadily stepping into her full creative identity.

Known for her soulful blend of Afrobeat, R&B, and global influences, Qing Madi continues to carve out a unique lane in the Nigerian music landscape. Her sound is often defined by emotional depth, smooth vocal delivery, and a natural ability to connect with both local and international audiences.

On “Barely Legal,” she expands that identity even further, pulling together an impressive lineup of heavyweight collaborators that spans multiple generations of Nigerian music. The EP features appearances from Tiwa Savage, BNXN, Victony, Zinoleesky, Zlatan, Flavour, Wande Coal, Rotimi, and Eemoh, creating a rich blend of styles and influences.

Sonically, the project moves fluidly across Afrobeats, soulful melodies, and contemporary African rhythms. Tracks like “Come Slide” highlight her ability to float effortlessly over modern production while maintaining her signature softness and emotional clarity.

Beyond its sound, “Barely Legal” carries a deeper narrative of growth, confidence, love, and youthful expression. It captures a transitional phase in both life and artistry, where curiosity meets ambition and experimentation meets direction.

What makes the EP particularly notable is how it bridges generations. With veterans like Tiwa Savage, Flavour, and Wande Coal appearing alongside newer voices such as Victony and Zinoleesky, the project becomes a meeting point between legacy and the future of Afrobeats.

Critics and listeners alike are already pointing to the EP as a pivotal moment in Qing Madi’s rise, one that could position her for even broader international recognition in the near future.

Ultimately, “Barely Legal” is more than just a sophomore project. It is a declaration that Qing Madi is not only growing but also intentionally shaping her space within the global music conversation through bold collaborations and an unmistakable Afro-fusion identity.

Built around a catchy guitar-driven loop, the record finds both artists addressing critics while reaffirming loyalty to their roots and the streets that shaped their rise. The sound leans heavily into gritty rap textures fused with indigenous street-hop energy, creating a restless, chant-like anthem that has quickly begun trending on TikTok.

On “Motion Sickness,” ODUMODUBLVCK delivers his signature deep-toned, aggressive flow, layering intense street storytelling with raw conviction. Zlatan complements him with his trademark bounce, slang-heavy delivery, and infectious rhythm, adding a lighter but equally impactful counterbalance to the record’s intensity.

The track continues ODUMODUBLVCK’s strong 2026 run, following his earlier release “THEY LOVE ME” and arriving after his expansive 23-track debut album INDUSTRY MACHINE, which closed out 2025 with a heavyweight lineup of collaborators including Skepta, Wizkid, Stormzy, Davido, Saweetie, Cash Cobain, Pa Salieu, Giggs, Patoranking, Seun Kuti, and Zlatan.

Lyrically, “Motion Sickness” is packed with street-coded confidence and braggadocio, with both artists trading bars about success, envy, and survival in a competitive industry. ODUMODUBLVCK’s verse leans into intense imagery and emotional grit, while Zlatan injects humour and street wisdom through his energetic ad-libs and punchlines.

“My sweet oroma/ She can go nuts if I use my hot head (Hot head)/ My enemies cry, e don too much e go full for bucket/ Dem go still apply Aboniki balm if dem feel my success/ Odumodublvck guide o, motion too much, ọmọ motion sickness,”

With its viral momentum and street-rooted authenticity, “Motion Sickness” further cements both artists as key voices in Nigeria’s evolving rap and street-hop landscape, blending raw storytelling with mainstream appeal.

The singer, still reacting to the outcome of his bout against comedian Carter Efe, expressed frustration over what he described as selective support within the music industry.

According to him, many of his colleagues who rarely attended his concerts were quick to attend the boxing event, not out of support, but to witness his loss.

In a series of emotional statements, Portable claimed that while his music shows often go unnoticed, the same figures turned out in numbers when it came to the fight.

His words …

“If I host show them no go come. My concerts them no dey come. But as then see boxing all the celebrities come. Na my downfall them come to watch. Ehena. My concerts dem no dey come.

Those who dey hat£ on me Dey celebrate belt wey I don collect 2 time’s. if too say na music show concert them no go come as them won see my down fall all my enemi£s come out to f!ght against me I don’t only f!ght Carter na all my £nemies Dey him back dey celebrate pass who get belt.

God pass them I Dey celebrate new Born Glory Una still Dey hat£ on me you, you on your tv Dey look for my down fall, God use am bless me with Pikin. Some of Una for this music industry no fit give woman belle…

God pass Una na me collect 40m before I enter ring na only 10m me and him Dey f!ght for so na belt you never see before. See me see Davido and Zlatan Dey use my my boxing belt Dey enter club. A!yeyin ti baj£ you fit get money make you no get sense. You fit blow make you no fit enter ring f!ght me. I Don first Una enter ring f!ght I no be Una mate for that way.

Una music no Dey tend again all my songs don cover Una shine why them no go Dey vex. Zlatan Dey run all peoples page wey post bad about me to drop h@te comment na yourself you Dey do…”

Beyond the outburst, Portable insisted that the loss has not affected his achievements, pointing out that he earned significantly from the fight and remains focused on his personal life, particularly the recent birth of his child, which he described as a greater blessing.

He also alleged that some figures within the industry are actively fueling negative conversations about him online, a claim that adds another layer to the ongoing tension surrounding his name.

Despite the controversy, the situation continues to stir reactions across social media, further highlighting the rivalry, emotions, and spectacle that now surround celebrity boxing and its growing intersection with Nigeria’s music scene.

Released under Oosha Records and EMPIRE, the record is produced by hitmaker Yung Willis and arrives as a high-energy blend of street gospel and club-ready Afro-street sound. Driven by heavy basslines and a fast-paced rhythm, the track fuses spiritual gratitude with raw, unfiltered street energy.

Zlatan opens the song with his trademark Zanku flair, layering playful ad-libs and infectious confidence over the beat, while still delivering a verse that carries surprising lyrical sharpness. ODUMODUBLVCK follows with his signature deep-toned intensity, injecting grit and commanding presence that elevates the record’s street appeal.

At the center of it all is Fido, whose melodic yet rhythmic delivery ties both contrasting styles together. His performance ensures the track remains accessible to mainstream listeners while still resonating strongly with the street audience that both featured artists dominate.

Despite its spiritual title, “Dance For Jesus” leans heavily into dancefloor energy, creating a bold contrast between its theme of gratitude and its high-octane production. The irony has not gone unnoticed by fans, adding to the song’s viral appeal.

Already gaining traction online, the record is trending across social media platforms, especially TikTok, where a dance challenge has begun to spread rapidly. It also reflects a growing 2026 trend where artists blend religious or spiritual themes with street-hop intensity to create music that is both celebratory and energetic.

With its mix of faith, fun, and street credibility, “Dance For Jesus” stands out as one of the year’s most talked-about releases.

Speaking during an interview, the music star revealed that his parents were skeptical about the source of his income after his breakthrough, especially when he bought his first house in Lekki at the age of 25 in 2019 as a gift for them.

According to Zlatan, his parents refused to move into the house because they suspected the money used to acquire it was linked to internet fraud. To convince them otherwise, he had to provide proof of his earnings.

“My parents refused to live in the first house I bought in Lekki because they thought it was fraud money… I had to print my account statement to show them I am being honest,” Zlatan said.

He added that even after being reassured, his parents remained cautious and insisted on spiritual confirmation before accepting the gift.

“They later told me that if they have to come, they will do a seven days prayers to confirm if it’s from God. When they finally agreed to move in, they gave me a condition that I would also live with them,” he stated.

The revelation has since sparked conversations online, with many people relating to the cautious nature of African parents, while others praised his parents for prioritizing integrity despite their son’s fame and success.

“My parents refused to live in the first house I bought for ₦70 million because they thought it was Yahoo money… I had to get a lawyer to explain music money
When we were living together, they told me to be home before 10pm and even made me sign a contract not to get tattoos”… pic.twitter.com/62ssypBsY5

The controversy began after a Snapchat exchange circulated online on January 27, 2026, sparking widespread reactions. In the viral screenshot, a Snapchat user identified as Olohitare was seen asking, “I hope your wife is doing fine, sir?”

A response from what appeared to be Zlatan’s account followed, stating, “She is the mother of my kids but she is not my wife yet. She is fine.”

However, Zlatan has since clarified that the exchange did not originate from him.

Taking to his official X (formerly Twitter) page, the rapper firmly denied ever making such a statement, insisting that the Snapchat conversation was completely fabricated.

He emphasized that he never posted anything of the sort on his Snapchat account and warned fans to be more cautious about engaging with unverified content online.

Addressing the situation directly, Zlatan wrote:
“Y’all know I hate to shalaye But if you’re still one of those who can’t differentiate or confirm before you engage an agenda post in 2026 !! You don’t deserve to have internet on your phone !! THIS IS FAKE !!! banger boy your time is coming soon.”

He further urged social media users to be mindful of fake accounts and misleading narratives, stressing the importance of verifying posts before reacting or sharing.

Meanwhile, the page responsible for spreading the false story has reportedly issued an apology, bringing some closure to the situation as Zlatan clears his name from the rumour.

Popular Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile has sparked fresh conversations online after speaking candidly about his relationship with his partner, Davita Lamai.

The Zanku hitmaker took to Snapchat to address a message from a fan who casually referred to Davita, who is based in the United Kingdom, as his wife.

Zlatan was quick to clear the air, firmly stating that he is not married yet. While acknowledging their close bond, he explained that Davita is the mother of his children but not his wife at this point.

Responding directly to a Snapchat user identified as Olohitare, who asked, “I hope your wife is doing fine, sir?”,

Zlatan replied:
“She is the mother of my kids but she is not my wife yet. She is fine,”

The rapper shares two children with Davita Lamai. Their first child, Shiloh, was followed by their second, Benaiah, who celebrated his first birthday in November 2025.

Zlatan has never hidden his admiration and support for Davita. In July 2025, he proudly celebrated her academic success after she completed a Master’s degree at the University of Birmingham in the UK.

Reports at the time revealed that the rapper marked the milestone with a brand-new Mercedes-Benz, estimated to be worth between ₦100 million and ₦200 million. Zlatan was present at the graduation ceremony and openly expressed his pride, saying every penny spent on her education was worth it.

Davita Lamai’s graduation drew widespread attention online, with some reports noting that she graduated with honours. Beyond academics, Zlatan has also been known to celebrate her personal milestones lavishly.

In March 2024, he reportedly gifted her a Mercedes-Benz GLE valued at about ₦100 million to mark her 27th birthday.

Zlatan’s recent clarification has since fueled discussions online, with many applauding his honesty and the respectful way he addressed assumptions about his personal life.
