Yemi Alade Unveils New Single 'Boyz' Ahead of Fifth Studio Album ¶
Released on June 25, 2020, 'Boyz' marks Yemi Alade's first official single for the year, signaling the start of a new era for the acclaimed African pop diva.
The song, a high-energy up-tempo track, celebrates the male gender and is produced by Vtek. The music video, directed by Paul Gambit, stars Nigerian Afro-pop star Seyi Shay.
With 'Boyz', Alade continues her successful streak, following the massive success of her fourth studio album 'Woman of Steel' and the music video for 'Shekere', which featured multiple Grammy Award winner Angélique Kidjo.
Alade is currently working on her untitled fifth studio album, set for release in 2020. Her previous albums include 'Woman of Steel' (2019), 'Black Magic' (2017), 'Mama Africa' (2016), and 'King of Queens' (2014).
On her social media platforms, Alade is running a fun hashtag, #boyzchallenge, where fans can create, perform, and share their own choreographies of the 'Boyz' song.
