It is nearly impossible to ignore the talent of Yemisi Fancy, the burgeoning songbird elevating Afrobeats’ catalogues. With her just-released 5-tracker debut dubbed, ‘Fancy’, the chanteuse curates a memoir of her own life, sing-diving into themes of love, intimacy, and hedonism.
Yemisi Fancy’s pen game is on full display, crafting lyrics that resonate with the heart and soul. Her distinctive voice, reminiscent of the iconic Mama Africa, Yemi Alade, adds a unique flavor to every track. The production, handled by acclaimed producers, is nothing short of spectacular, creating a sonic experience that’s bound to captivate.
The EP kicks off with a distinctive nod to the infectious beats of American house music, setting the stage for an electrifying experience. It’s a subtle invitation to lace up your dancing shoes and get ready for a ride like no other.
As the EP unfolds, Yemisi Fancy treats us to a series of mid-tempo tunes that delve into themes of love, progress, and pure enjoyment. Each track is a testament to her artistry, with every lyric and melody carefully curated to enchant the listener.
Collaborations on this project are nothing short of genius. On “Like It” featuring Tobi Peter, Yemisi Fancy brings a light and flirty vibe to her verses, perfectly complemented by Tobi’s presence. This synergy between artists is a common thread that runs through the entire EP, resulting in a seamless and harmonious musical journey.
One standout moment comes in the form of a party anthem featuring none other than the afro-house queen herself, Niniola. This track is a testament to Yemisi Fancy’s ability to craft music that not only entertains but leaves a lasting impression on the listener.
Yemisi Fancy is a Nigerian actress, singer, and songwriter with a background in Law. She kickstarted her career as an actress on the MNet glamour TV series Tinsel where she played the character of Helen.
She, however, took her passion for music and dance to the next level when she debuted her music career in October 2015 with her debut single, Faraway.
In January 2017 she got signed by Indie Record Label, Meshtro Entertainment, and released a second single titled Oyari; a Sess-produced song in the genre of Afro-house which received lots of positive reviews and airplay. In August 2017, she released yet another Single titled Disco, a Krizbeatz-produced song that got even more positive reviews. The visuals to the single was also released within that timeline
She has worked with a couple of industry big shots in her quest to make a name for herself in the music industry. For one, her debut single was the second lead single produced by ace producer and Bahd Guys Entertainment’s in-house producer, SESS. Her 3drd single- Disco, also featured stellar production by KRIZBEATZ while the video was shot by MEX.
Yemsi identifies as an Afro House singer; a genre which she believes is not any different from the popular, hiphop and afrobeats genres. She is now set to fully own the sound and leave her mark in the industry.
