As part of the preparation for the release of his highly anticipated album, Protect Sarz at All Costs, ace producer Osabuohien Osaretin, well known by his professional moniker, Sarz, has confirmed a lineup of heavyweight collaborators for the project.

The impressive lineup, which is a blend of Afrobeats heavyweights cum international stars, has already got fans buzzing, and promises a diverse, global sound that reflects Sarz’s unmatched versatility as a producer.

On the roster of confirmed collaborators are Nigeria’s sensations Asake, the dynamic Ayra Starr, and the talented Lojay, teaming up with American rap stars Big Sean and Gunna. The addition of these U.S. icons signifies a significant crossover achievement for Sarz, underscoring his expanding impact on the global music scene and teasing a blend of sounds that could revolutionise modern African music.

Adding to the excitement, speculation are swirling that Afrobeats ‘big three’, Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy may also appear on the album. Given Sarz’s ability to craft hits that dominate both local and international charts, he has long been at the forefront of shaping the Afrobeats sound.

The ace producer recently dropped a skit-style teaser video that has sent the music world into a frenzy. Styled as a mock press conference, the clip playfully taps into the intense anticipation surrounding the album.

In the video, Sarz finds himself in the hot seat as a determined journalist presses hard for details regarding the number of tracks and the album’s release date. Tension soared when the journalist pushed for an “exclusive,” directly inquiring if Wizkid, Burna Boy, and Davido would make guest appearances on the album.
