TAYO means ‘source of joy’ in Yoruba and it brought just that to Musa Keys’ fans
TAYO is Musa Keys’ debut album. It is full of power, melodic anthems and is a culmination of Musa Keys’ signature style cultivated by raw and nostalgic post internet era endearment. The milestone is a significant one since TAYO was destined for greatness even before its release.
“I have been working on this debut album basically my entire life. All my experiences, inspirations and triumphant moments are all breathed and put into this project – with the hope that it shall bring joy and happiness to the many lives the music touches. That is my gift to the world.”
Almost as a prophetic first born, Selema (Po Po) is the first single on the album and it is the song that reached great milestone. Selema (Po Po) shows his ambitions to take over the African continent by featuring emerging Tanzanian act Loui through collaboration – intentionally planning to open new markets in East Africa and West Africa.
Musa Keys sprung on the mainstream Amapiano scene in 2020 after emerging as a “mumble rapper” releasing Samarian Boy. The song broke him to fame with over 6 millions streams across all digital platforms while the leading single Vula Mlomo off the new album cemented him a multi platinum hitmaker with a long career ahead of him.
TAYO is available on digital streaming platforms.
