EP REVIEW: Crayon - "Twelve A.M"

Nigerian postar, Charles Chibueze Chukwu who is mostly known as Crayon presents his sophomore project tagged 'Twelve A.M'.

The fast rising Nigerian singer, songwriter and recording artist, Crayon is signed to Mavin record's imprint Blow Time Entertainment. Crayon who is on radar of both Baby Fresh and Don Jazzy released his first project 'Cray Cray' in 2019. The solo-performed 6-tracks body of work gave him hit songs like So Fine, Aye O and Bamiloke.

Over his first two years underMavin records and Blow Time Entertainment, Crayon has released some amazing videos like So Fine and Kpano. He also featured on Ladipoe's 'Based on Kpa', Mavin records 'All Is In Order' and on a few albums from artists around the world.

Despite being under the tutelage of Nigeria's veteran music executive, Crayon has not really been able to attain his full potential.

Today, the youngster teamed up with his record label mate, Rema for the first time. Rema, Bella Shmurda and rapper One Acen joined him in his second project titled "Twelve A.M".

• Crayon goes solo on this one. The youngster attempts to explore his soul for a unique sound. He takes a step away from dancehall into the heart of afrobeat with this groovy tune. In Sync is a spiritual melodic song produced by London.

• Finally, we have a Crayon and Rema collaboration. Wawaw and Another Banger link up in an amapiano afro-house song tagged Too Correct. It's a potential hit song made with urban folk music.

• The next track is my favourite. London based singer and rapper, One Acen hoop up with Crayon on Man Dem. The switch in flow from One Acen literally touched my soft spot. It's an interesting vibe.

• The last track is the only single on this project. Nigeria's trendy act, Bella Shmurda jumps on Crayon's Jackpot.
