Released on the 26th of May 2022, Loti‘s latest single ‘Mainland‘ is all you should be listening to, especially if you live in Lagos or just simply familiar with the it’s lifestyle.
Born Emelie Dan-Nwabueze, the highly talented Loti sings about the mundane antics of the Lagos Mainland, a less affluent region of Lagos state, in the song “Mainland.” The song is essentially a gallery of events that surround the singer’s environs, as he sings them from his own perspective. The song has been met with a great amount of positive reception since it’s release.
The singer impresses with a nicely curated Afro-fusion tune with subtle R&B components. Loti is a multi-genre musical performer who also doubles as a rapper and is gifted with the ability to weave stories in his songs with great lyrics.
The briliant beatmaker WalahiSteph produced the song “Mainland,” which also has a crisp, cinematic music video that was filmed in several locales in Lagos. The song is the first single from Loti‘s forthcoming Extended Play, “Gorimakpa.”
