Afrobeats remains a wide-open category of music, continuing to expand and evolve thanks to artists stretching the boundaries of what it can be, and Bluely’s new single “Beggar No Choice” is one such example of rhythmic swagger and introspective depth walking across a musical path. The Nigerian Afrobeat/Afro-fusion musician strikes a perfect equilibrium between groove and meaning, offering you the opportunity to dance and also to reflect.
“Beggar No Choice” is a story about self-awareness and the importance of choosing growth over instant gratification. Bluely, whose richly soulful vocal delivery weaves that theme into the fabric of a backdrop that’s melodic and smooth, hitting Afrobeat percussion with inclusions of lyrical rap, for a twist.
On “Beggar No Choice,“ Bluely proves himself to be a new figure to watch in the Afro-fusion sphere. He’s a creator of songs that stick and sing as they strut. It’s evidence that Afrobeats, despite its global energy, can still carry intimate personal truths whose resonance is universal. This song is a manifesto for Bluely to motivate, uplift, and make us move, all at the same time. “Beggar No Choice“ is an experience to be shared.
