Nigerian music artiste and songwriter, Anthony Olukitibi, widely known as Ko’re, has said that his new song ‘Shaye’, was composed to inspire people who are struggling with life that no matter the situation, they must always celebrate their lives.
The US-based singer stated that he decided to come up with the song in order to remind people that irrespective of whatever they are going through, they must enjoy the moment and dance without worries.
Stating why his style of music stands out, Ko’re said, ”My music stands out because it blends Afrobeats with diverse global influences, creating a sound that is both authentic and fresh.
“Here’s what makes my style unique: rhythmic and melodic fusion. I mix traditional Afrobeats percussion with modern elements from R&B, dancehall, and highlife, making my sound versatile and appealing to a global audience.
Soulful storytelling beyond just beats, my lyrics tell relatable stories that connect emotionally with listeners, whether it’s about love, celebration, or personal growth.
“My music is designed to uplift and move people, creating an infectious energy that resonates on dance floors, at parties, and in everyday life. My voice carries a unique tone and flow that sets me apart from other Afrobeats artists. It’s a signature that fans can instantly recognise. I stay true to my roots while pushing creative boundaries, making my music a fusion of culture, rhythm, and innovation.”
