Nickelxon releases a powerful Afro-fusion ‘Wild & Innocent’ EP filled with real-life stories.
Wild & Innocent is Nickelxon’s newest EP, and it may be his most emotional and brave project so far.
The Nigerian Afro-fusion artist opens his heart in all seven tracks, talking about real experiences that many young listeners can connect with, like disappointment, gratitude, dreams, and family.
The project mixes Afrobeats, Amapiano, Afro-swing, hip-hop, and Nickelxon’s unique style to create a sound that feels fresh yet familiar.
