Muyeez – Water

Muyeez keeps his debut rollout rooted in tradition as “Water” opens his All Hail Muyeez album with a Fela Kuti nod.

The song weaves in lyrics from “Water No Get Enemy,” so the young Nigerian vocalist carries a familiar refrain into his own fresh sound. Larrylanes handled production, and the track leans on Fuji influences within the wider Afro-fusion style that shapes the whole project. That blend gives the opener its own character before the album moves into other territory.

Because this serves as the introduction, it also signals the scope of All Hail Muyeez. The debut full-length starts outside simple modern pop references, pulling instead from material steeped in Nigerian music history. That choice grounds the record in something older while still letting Muyeez sound current.
