On this episode, we’re joined by Emaxee, co-founder of Notesphere. He shares why the platform was created and his plans for a collective of artists expected to release some of the most exciting music later this year.
We also cover the big conversations shaping Afrobeats today, from Odumodu’s claim as Nigeria’s top rapper, to Burna Boy’s run with the best albums amongst the Big 3, Adekunle Gold’s impressive rebrand, the state of Ghanaian music, and the question of whether Mavo is truly ready for a European tour.
