Alongside the full project release on November 15th is focus track ‘MASTA’, a braggadocious self-assured anthem set to a unique fusion of amapiano and dancehall, complimented by the south London patois stylings of Motown Record’s Jords, produced by Tim and Code6. With sonic nods to Jamaica, South Africa and his hometown of Lagos, it’s the kind of record that could only have ever been produced in the melting pot of London town.
Nuffa dem a call me Senpai
'Cause they gotta respect me
Test me
Na that kind of thing wey go vex me
From a likkle yout
Know say Jah Jah don bless me
Some man just hate 'cause of envy
Woah

All of dia pikni dem or dia mama
So what you want from a nigga now
Hold on

You should come around here
You go learn why they call me the Masta
Right now I fi tell dem
Senpai na Masta
Tell dem
So they wanna play with a monster
Well then

You go need to run faster
Wonder why you call on money
No answer
Better make you hustle
Sapa na bastard

I'm the illest since Majek Fashek
Beg the rain come down
Dripping a fi flood up your whole compound
Beg the paramedic dem all come round
It's fire on the mountain, fire on the ground
It's burning
And now that the fire
Is burning
Don't know what you gonna do
No clue
'Cause now that the fire
Is burning
Don't know where to run to
Big papa
