Pheelz Signs to Warner Records After the Viral Success of ‘Finesse’: ‘Right Now I’m Just Making Art’
Last year, Afrobeats zapped the stateside mainstream after the success of Wizkid’s breakthrough single “Essence” and Ckay’s “Love Nwantiti.” In 2022, more burgeoning Afrobeats artists find themselves in similar territory: Fireboy DML’s booming track “Peru” with Ed Sheeran is thriving on the Hot 100, while Olamide’s Justin Bieber-assisted “Attention” is bubbling as a potential hit. Now, producer-turned-artist Pheelz looks to throw his hat into the ring after signing a deal with Warner Records.

How Afrobeats Artists Are Using Fashion To Tell Us Who They Are
This piece was created in partnership with Afro Nation.

When alté music, a genre defined by its inability to be conclusively defined as it moves through different genres and maintains a highly experimental form, began to enter mainstream Afrobeats music in the late 2010s,...
Omah Lay Talks Reuniting With Justin Bieber and Bringing More ‘Attention’ to Afrobeats Music
Afrobeats singer Omah Lay and Justin Bieber get the party started with their brand new collaboration “Attention,” which was released on Friday (March 4) via SIRE/Warner Records. The pair ride the rhythm of the sensual and vibrant Afrobeats crossover track’s sizzling hi-hats, bouncy percussion and purring pop synth riffs, courtesy of the song’s producers Harv (Bieber’s frequent collaborator) and Avedon, as the singers repeatedly coo in the chorus, “Show me a little attention.” Bieber packs in big vibes when he asks, “Should I drink up/ Smoke up?/ I need some/ freedom/ Freedom, ah! in my life,” while Omah effortlessly lets the last word of each line roll off his tongue to the point where it’s more felt than heard. The song is already being promoted to U.S. pop radio starting on Monday, March...

Femi – Heist & Mr Nobody
