Three months ago, Nigerian recording artist YKB (yusufkanbai)—real name Yusuf Oluwo—released an outstanding extended play called ‘Hear Me Out’. The title is apt, as most artists are in search of discovery. As the project plays out, we get to learn more about his desires. His songwriting skills are top-tier, which handsomely reflects his youth, wittiness, and affinity for wet body parts. Spending most of his time in the city of Ketu, the creative Afro-Fusion artist developed an interest in music and creating it. YKB has a promising future. Stream the EP below to support the artist.
