Asa - V (Album)

Continuing to forge her own path with her trailblazing sounds and song-writing, the internationally celebrated, multi-platinum Nigerian music star Asa, today releases her highly-anticipated new album ‘V’(out now via Platoon).

Taking cues from Pop, Afrobeat, R&B, Soul and electronic influences and mixing them with breathy, soulful vocals to create dreamy, ethereal soundscapes, V sees Asa embracing a newfound freedom which is demonstrated across the 10-track project, including the singles ‘Mayana’ and ‘Ocean’ - and their dreamy music visuals – and brand new collaborations with Wizkid, Amaarae and The Cavemen.

With production from the exciting Nigerian producer Priime, the new album was born out of a last-minute decision to return to her home in Nigeria, when the European leg of her tour had been paused due to the pandemic, where she started working on new music with ‘a certain carefreeness, letting go, trusting in the process and allowing myself to be vulnerable’ and connecting with some of the brilliant artists and creatives from the country and across the continent.
