The Pan-Africanist ideal never died—it morphed into hybridized sonic fragments that connect Joburg to Nairobi via Lagos and Accra. On “Non Living Thing,” Sarkodie teams up with Oxlade to break down what happens when love disappears. “When men fall in love for the first time, we can’t see anyone else, we’re blind,” Sarkodie tells Apple Music. “When that love is broken, it makes us insecure—now we want to validate ourselves by looking for other people. ‘Non Living Thing’ is advice: If you’re with someone with aspirations, and who’s driven and has passion, the best you can do is support and build the person up. If you don’t want to do the work, that’s up to you. But everyone you want was built by someone else.” Alongside this new single, you’ll find the latest and greatest songs from across the continent, from hip-hop, highlife, Afrobeats, and alté to house, Afrobongo, and kuduro.
