DJ Kev Joins Forces With Toby K For “Fala Folo”

Afrobeats has always been a celebratory medium and had a party-igniting spirit at its core. It’s a culture of music devoted to the grand nature of highlighting the simplicity of a good time and its shenanigans. The presentation of this multi-faceted experience can come in the form of soulful ballads or high octane energetic pop anthems. Still, the spirit of celebration has always remained untainted. Fast-rising disc jockey, DJ Kev, understands this and pays tribute to its genre’s good time-oriented sentiment with a handful of colorful production choices, that blur the line between the calm of emotionally-charged records with confessional lyrics and uptempo club bangers.

The DJ’s latest release, “Fala Folo,” a collaboration with singer, Toby K, displays an interesting synthesis of the DJ and producer’s affinity for creating lively songs, while pushing Toby K to a higher level. Although they live in different parts of the world, the duo find a middle ground that enables their contrasting origins elevate the record and re affirm the range and diversity that makes Afrobeats tick. The true brilliance of “Fala Folo” is how it details the exhilarating night life with vivid imagery and a raving persona that’s infectious. The record immaculately balances being an energetic party starter, whilst at the same time having enough depth to spur reflections.
