Obongjayar - Paradise Now [LP] Obongjayar's forthcoming sophomore 'Paradise Now', is an ambitiously fresh global prospect, with roots grounded in his own wide-ranging world of infl uences. It's everything from pop to punk, dance to Afrobeat, funk to folk, refracted through a thrilling new perspective. ''I wanted an album that I could listen to from start to finish on a night out.'' But he still considers it something of a Trojan Horse. Recorded between London and LA with UK alt-rap mainstay Kwes Darko ( Pa Salieu, John Glacier) and Grammy-winning production trio Beach Noise (Kendrick Lamar, Baby Keem, Bakar), the record is as emotionally complex and broad as Obongjayar has ever been, even within its contagious candy coating.
