eteran musician Emma Ike Agu aka Allah-Bama is back with a dance project entitled ‘Wajo.’

Alla-Bama, who left Nigeria many years ago, has returned to the music scene with his latest music offering.

After gaining popularity with ‘Wajo’ outside the shores of Nigeria, Allah-Bama said he’s back in continuation of the dance project.

peaking in a chat, Agu said he’s due to release a 24-track album in August 2024 adding that going back to the basics will help to sustain our music culture.

“When next I will be home, I will be doing the Igbo war dance, which showcases the Igbo culture in a very contemporaneous way,” Agu added.

Since bursting onto the country’s music scene with his delightful Afro-calypso-influenced dance rhythms and melodies, Agu has continued to evolve as a singer, producer and songwriter.

While he has always possessed exceptional talent in songwriting, the singer has continually reinvented himself and surpassed his previous offerings with each new endeavour and musical style.

Following the current trends , where Afrobeats dominates the global stage, Agu’s latest efforts showcases an irresistibly contemporary brand of world-class Afrobeats creations that establish him as a maestro within the genre. His classics from the 90s like the timeless ‘Wajo Similaya’ continue to serve as musical benchmarks and points of reference.
