Rap Duo, ShowDemCamp has launched their newest album, “No Love In Lagos,” that includes The Cavemen and Nsikak David. This marks their eleventh album, following “Palmwine Music 3” launched in 2022. The ten-track album comes after the discharge of two singles, “Johni” and “No Love In Lagos,” which set the stage for the complete mission.
In “No Love In Lagos,” ShowDemCamp’s Ghost and Tec seamlessly mix their signature “palmwine sound” with the highlife rhythms preserved by The Cavemen (brothers Benjamin James and Kingsley Okorie). The album, propelled by the celebrated guitarist Nsikak David and produced by Spax, explores the intersection of hip-hop and African oral traditions. It provides a wealthy tapestry of sounds, from private reflections in tracks like “Blessings” to the vigorous vibes of “OMFTR.”
“[We’re] opening a dimension of what doubtlessly African hip-hop may sound like,” Present Dem Camp’s Tec tells Apple Music. “A whole lot of occasions, [in Africal we lean on popular sounds from the West. As Show Dem Camp, we’re Nigerian rappers, [and so] our influences are nearer to residence.” The mission casts the titular Nigerian metropolis as one thing of an extra collaborator, with storytelling that unpacks the highs and heartaches of day by day life within the large metropolis.
“That is probably the most enjoyable we’ve had recording an album in a very long time and it exhibits within the music. Massive like to our brothers from the cave, The Cavemen and Nsikak David,” ShowDemCamp shared.
