Afro-Pop star, Oxlade, celebrated globally for his chart-topping single, “Ku Lo Sa”, has released a compelling two-track pack, “Katigori/Piano”. This release showcases Oxlade in both celebratory and reflective mode, as he continues to cement his status as a superstar of his generation.
It features “Katigori”, a mid-tempo Afrobeats anthem produced by maestro Timmy, and “Piano”, produced by seasoned hitmaker, P. Priime, a romantic ballad that is sure to become a staple in romantic playlists.
In a statement about the two-track pack, Oxlade shares, “‘Katigori’ is a three-year-old record; it was created in a space where I had fame but not success. It was me manifesting where I am now and prophesying my future because I feel like there’s a moment in my music career where everybody will accept that I’m the GOAT. On the other hand, ‘Piano’ is a result of all my fast-paced records that didn’t get the blessings they deserved. Now that I have the audience and numbers, I want to show everyone the fast, club side of Oxlade. ‘Piano’ is the strongest song I’ve dropped this year musically. I want everyone to have 2 sides of the coin, the cautious and the party Oxlade. Piano is a love song, Katigori is a statement piece, letting them know that we’re not mates.”
