This marks Seyi Vibez’s first major release as an independent artist under NSNV Inc. in partnership with EMPIRE. The EP, featuring tracks like “Mario Kart,” “Shaolin,” “Happy Song,” and “Macho” (with NLE Choppa), highlights his signature blend of Afrobeat and street-inspired sounds.
“Shaolin” has proven particularly popular, also reaching number one on Apple Music’s Top Songs real-time chart for Nigeria. Its catchy beat and rhythm have made it a social media anthem, with fans praising its unique mix of street hop and traditional influences.
The rapid success of Children of Africa reinforces Seyi Vibez’s status as a leading voice in Nigerian street-pop, showcasing his ability to connect with audiences through relatable storytelling and infectious rhythms.
