Afrobeats legend, 2baba (fka Tuface) and Alternative pop singer, Fave come together to deliver a refreshing new record, “Mental”.
“Mental” serves as a major release ahead of 2baba‘s highly anticipated upcoming studio album titled ‘Oldest Young Man’, which marks his first full-length album project in over six years. Thematically, the song bridges the gap between the emotional expression of two different eras of Nigerian pop music. 2baba delivers classic Afrobeats romance and sweet-talking composure, while Fave infuses the modern, introspective, and moody “altĂ©-leaning” vulnerability that characterizes the current generation’s approach to love and heartbreak.
Both artists trade perspectives on dropping their guards and admitting how helpless they are to the thrill and hold of the relationship with emphasis on the internal “sweet torment” of needing someone to the point where it dictates your peace of mind.
