Setting the tone with immersive keys and celestial detailing with vocal add libs and a lighter sparking up, Awoodah opens his single FELA N BOB MARLEY with intrigue and atmosphere.
FELA N BOB MARLEY expands with a luscious Afrobeat meets alternative reggae-R&B soundscape to deliver and emotive and charming song about connecting with the cannabis plant, the human condition, abundance and love energy.
It is no surprise that Awoodah has already been championed by MTV, BET, TRACE and Apple Music, and more recently by Flaunt Magazine, iMULLAR and PAM Magazine, while also having shared the stage with Afrobeats royalty such as D’Banj, Wizkid, Davido and Wande Coal, Sean Dampte.
Awoodah has been foundational and a staple fixture in the rise of Afrobeats music in the UK, and is revered for his stellar fusion sound of Afrobeats, dancehall and pop music, which has amassed over 12 million plays along the way.
We love the hook, “So we smoke and excel like potential…”, which cements the ode to Bob Marley but also demonstrates Awoodah‘s activism for the cannabis plant which is still technically unavailable legally to its full potential in the UK!
We are grateful for Awoodah‘s energy and have added FELA N BOB MARLEY to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we stream his wider discography including Freaky and Star Girl.
