Born Oboise Eromosele Umobuarie, rap sensation Oboise was born in 1998 in Auchi, Nigeria to a family of art and music lovers. The rapper has been consistent and relentless since he began his music career. He has released six major singles, five EPs, and three full-length albums in the span of five years. Oboise has also tackled a variety of genres over the years. His most recent album, “NO PRESSURE,” finds the rapper sharing his experiences in music and relationships. With over 600,000 streams and 35,000 views on YouTube, Oboise still believes that his greatest accomplishment as a musician is being able to create art that people can relate to. The artist has collaborated with several hitmakers such as Buju, Dax, and WildNation. His new banger, ‘Tampico’ ft Buju, is another triumphant release with its bouncy rhythms and colourful rhythm. While ‘Tampico’ takes inspiration from a remarkable arrangement of styles – ranging from afrobeats, and hip hop – there is one consistent feature that interprets this release, and that is explicit energy. It is rare to find a sound so enormously and overwhelmingly upbeat, and it is really restorative to listen to. The song is created with the perfect embodiment of the winning formula that can lead to the artist amassing millions of streams. Subsequently, ‘Tampico’, which features regular collaborator Buju is a love letter to the culture and a vibrant mastery, whilst exhibiting a stunning musical maturity. Overall, ‘Tampico’ is an explicit and exhilarating rap sensation, and undoubtedly a release of the highly anticipated body of work. A Afro-infused, joy-inducing package of colour, together with a top notch production, as well as excellent vocals from the talented duo Oboise and Buju.
