‘I Want To Be Part Of Afrobeats’ – Usher
American R&B icon Usher has shared that he teamed up with Nigerian musicians Burna Boy and Pheelz for his most recent album because he aims to join the Afrobeats movement.
Usher recently embraced the Afrobeats trend by featuring Pheelz in ‘Ruin,’ the main track of his latest album, and collaborating with Burna Boy on the album’s title track, ‘Homecoming’.
During a recent conversation with Apple Music, Usher mentioned that Pheelz played a crucial part in connecting him with Burna Boy for the collaboration.
He said, “I am all about collaboration and bringing African, you know, Nigerian culture to my own world. Their music is really popular now. I wanted to be part of it [Afrobeats], that’s why I went to Africa to make this album.
“I picked up things when I was in Ghana. I picked up things when I was in Nigeria. And working with Pheelz, he created the record [‘Homecoming’]. I just felt that Burna Boy would take it to a different level of credibility. I really do enjoy him as an artist. I just felt that this song would only be lifted better if he was part of it.”
