Vol. 2 captures a pivotal chapter in the career of Alhaji Waziri Oshomah, revered pioneer of Nigeria's Muslim highlife sound, alongside his Traditional Sound Makers. Crafted during the years surrounding his first hajj, these recordings reflect Waziri’s mastery in blending traditional Edo music with soulful highlife, funk, and world rhythms.
This album stands out for its expansive, groove-driven tracks that honor everyday heroes—such as managing directors and electrical contractors—through rich storytelling and hypnotic rhythms. Released by Luaka Bop in 2023, Vol. 2 showcases Waziri's celebrated ability to merge cultural insight with infectious, danceable beats, making it a must-hear from one of Nigeria’s most distinctive voices.
