Emerging from Lagos, Nigeria, Tusabi has steadily carved a niche with his blend of heavy rhythms and uncompromising lyricism. His latest release, “Not The One,” drops on June 6, 2026, delivering a powerful, unapologetic anthem that speaks directly to the frustrations saturating society as we approach 2027.
“Not The One” is more than just a song — it’s a raw, urgent declaration reflecting the collective exhaustion of many who grapple with economic hardship, insecurity, inflation, and broken promises. The track serves as a call for accountability and a peaceful step down from the current political landscape, encapsulating the sentiment, “no more shege we fit bare.” Tusabi masterfully produced and mastered the track himself, ensuring that the sonic landscape matches the intensity of his message.
This release marks another chapter in Tusabi’s evolving sound, following the high-energy, celebratory resilience of “I Too Much,” featuring Mograbi. That prior collaboration set a high standard by blending dynamic features with motivational storytelling, a tradition Tusabi continues with “Not The One.” His earlier works, including “Good Energy,” “Right One,” “I Run Base,” “Another Level,” and “Tell Me,” established a gritty, distinct identity, fearless in pushing boundaries both musically and thematically.
Tusabi’s music doesn’t just mirror the times—it aims to be a catalyst for change. As he puts it, “With Not The One, I’m not just trying to make a song you can nod your head to in traffic; I’m trying to document a moment in history. We are watching the landscape shift in real-time as we head toward 2027, and the youth aren’t just sitting back anymore.”
His dream collaborations include notable names like Burna Boy, Drake, Rema, Asake, The Weeknd, Tems, and Ayra Starr—artists who similarly blend authenticity and innovation.
For those tuning in to Tusabi, whether streaming or scanning codes around the city, it’s clear that this movement is only gaining momentum. With every beat and lyric, Tusabi stakes his place as a voice speaking truth to power and pushing culture forward.
