One artist pioneering the new Afropolitan rhythm is Funbi - a soulful singe and storyteller whose essence captures the past, highlights the present, and sets the standard for the next generation of Nigerian vocalists.

Though he's best known for his features on several songs, like Poe's "Adore Her" and Odunsi's "Desire" (also featuring Tay lwar), Funbi is establishing his presence as a solo act - starting with the release of his debut single "Hallelujah" to widespread acclaim. He followed up the effort with a beautifully shot music video, currently enjoying over 90,000 views on YouTube.
