The evil genius of Mr Eazi
Across the euphony of sound styles sweeping across Afrobeats, Mr Eazi’s Banku is one fusion that’s impossible to ignore. Since his 2013 debut mixtape, About To Blow, this Banku sound, blending elements from Ghanaian highlife bounce, Nigerian chord progressions and a unique singing approach that emphasises melody over percussion, has become a household favourite for Afrobeats lovers.
