Spaceship Collective’s fast-rising singer/songwriter, Buju releases his electrifying new single ”So Lovely”.

The groovy tune produced by Timi Jay which gives off a cool vibe that shows the Artiste’s vocal flair and dexterity is the latest in the string of outstanding singles the burgeoning music act has delivered since his foray into music. Buju’s storytelling ability is palpable in his swaggering delivery of lyrics in pidgin English and yoruba draped with his fresh new age sound of slow and sexy Afrobeats. Buju’s silky smooth voice is undeniable in its charm as it is welcome to the ears.

‘So lovely’ is simply the beacon for wooing the ladies in this new age music. Buju loves to sing; it’s crystal clear in the song’s hook ‘She say she dey lonely and she go like to boogey down on me. She dey relationship but he don’t ever keep you company’.

It is clear he’s well on his way to become one of the greatest Nigerian stars with this new succinctly delivered cool track that has no dramatic instrumentation whatsoever; which goes to show how clever Spaceship Collective is in tidying up the Afrobeats sounds into an evolution of music precocity. For ‘So lovely’, Buju attests to the fact that most times musically, less is indeed more.
