SEYI VIBES: My sound is conscious
RAVE of the moment, Seyi Vibes has opened up on his sound saying it’s Afro-soul that emanated from conscious sounds.
In a chat with Dadaboy Ehiz on Apple Music 1, Seyi Vibes said those who know him, know that he does conscious tunes.
“I would describe my sound [as] Afro-soul. I do conscious music a lot, anyone that knows Seyi Vibez knows me with a lot of conscious sound, so when I started doing the South African amapiano to my fusion, I started putting my conscious sound on it, even though there are fast beats, there are slow beats, I started adding my conscious sounds to it so that makes it more of my genre. I’m not trying to sound like anyone, it’s just pure me. The way I sing from way back, I also know how to put it on fast beats, so everything’s just going. My sound is just afro soul, some Fela Kuti vibe, some Islamic vibe, some celestial thing. It’s a mixture of a lot of things.”
The Afrobeats singer further described Burna Boy’s rendition of his song as the biggest motivation saying, “From Burna Boy, it’s the biggest motivation I have to up to now. It’s the biggest motivation, like “Seyi don’t stop, just keep up. They insult you, they like you or not, don’t stop! Just keep moving.”
