Nigerian Fuji musician, Adewale Ayuba, says he will release his new five-track album, “Arise”, on 19 September this year.

Mr Ayuba disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Lagos.

According to Mr Ayuba, the project marks the beginning of a new chapter in his musical career.

Mr Ayuba explained that ‘Arise’ marks a departure from the traditional long-form album format, which often involved lengthy recordings.

He said he would henceforth focus on shorter songs and more frequent releases to align with changing music consumption trends.
