Listen To Mayorkun’s Impressive Cover Of Nonso Amadi’s ‘Tonight’

Fast-rising DMW artist, Mayowa Adewale (a.k.a Mayorkun) continues to impress. From winning ‘Rookie of the Year’ at the 2016 Headies to releasing hit singles, “Eleko” and “Sade” (which to be honest sound like the same song) Mayorkun is excelling in his newfound career.

Now to show us he has more versatility than the recycled beat on his first two singles, “Eleko” and “Sade”, Mayorkun has released a ‘viral video’ for his cover of Nonso Amadi’s “Tonight”.

The great thing about covers is that they allow artists to show off their range, vocally and otherwise, and on this cover, Mayorkun proves he has a place in the overly-saturated afropop music industry.

Mayorkun’s cover also allows his impressive wordplay to shine through, with lyrics like;

“I don’t want to be your starboy on the weeknd”/“I stay fly when my phone is on airplane mode”

Side note: Why do Nigerian musicians crown their videos ‘viral videos’ before they, you know… go viral. Just saying.
