Multi-talented singer and founder of Roc Da Mic Africa, Asha Gangali known as Young OG has announced the release of his highly anticipated “Lifestyle EP” which would be available globally on September 11, 2020.

The Lifestyle Crooner revealed in an interview that the fresh new body of work is a blend of hip-hop and Afropop.

Asha Gangali revealed that he started working on the Lifestyle EP back in 2018 when he travelled to Accra, Ghana.

This journey apparently changed Asha’s creative direction and philosophical views about Pan Africanism.

Gangali was greatly influenced by Fela Kuti’s visit to Ghana before launching the Afrobeat movement, this awakening led to the total rebranding of Asha Gangali.

The musician’s new sound is very captivating while still maintaining solid appeal to the streets.

The Six tracks Lifestyle EP will feature Roc Da Mic Africa’s Artists like “GIDI GENG”, “PEPE” “TBEATZ”, “LEKAN AKO” and “NAOMI.”

The audio has gained over one million streams on blogs and free download sites.

Asha Gangali’s focus from the beginning of his career has always been not only to release good music but to also empower new talents by giving them a platform to showcase their skills and to ensure that the Nigerian music industry moves into a Digital Ecosystem to promote proper monetisation of music assets.
