$tevoxcv has become one of the most exciting afrobeats and hip-hop creatives around. Hailing from Nigeria but finding his creative haven in London, $tevoxcv’s musical journey began early, developing into a fusion of hip-hop, afrobeats, pop, and trap that showcases his true versatility.
Speaking about the project, $tevoxcv shares, “Lagos lifestyle, the mentality of the people, the state of the country as a whole, and personal experiences, all inspired the creation of the project.”
With a passion for crafting ferocious 16s, $tevoxcv has cultivated a unique sound that blends genres seamlessly. His new 8-track project, “Nights In Gidi,” marks a significant milestone in his career. Seeking inspiration from his roots in Lagos, $tevo wanted to encapsulate the essence of home in his music. The project, born from a departure from his comfort zone, explores uncharted creative spaces, offering listeners an immersive experience.
The lead single, “Ready Or Not,” serves as a sonic introduction to everything $tevoxcv embodies as an artist. Anchored in the realm of afro fusion, the song opens with rhythmic and vibrant percussion alongside a luscious backing track, setting the stage for $tevoxcv’s unique and captivating flow. Seamlessly transitioning between rap and singing, the track delivers an intoxicating blend of afrobeats, pop nuances, catchy lyricism, and beats that beckon anyone to move to the rich texture of sounds crafted by $tevo.
“Nights In Gidi” has something for every afrobeats and hip-hop listener, with other tracks such as “Trust Issues” stepping more into the latter genre, while others such as “After Party” instil that rich afro fusion sound and subtle blends of other genres to make an all encompassing sound that travels far and wide. “Nights In Gidi” is $tevoxcv’s best work to date and really positions him as an artist to watch in 2024.
