Lojay's Spectacular Debut Album 'XOXO' Set to Ignite the Afropop Scene
Lojay, an artist whose name has been on everyone’s lips, has finally released his long-anticipated debut album titled 'XOXO'. After months of excitement and buildup — with the initial release date pushed from late August to October — the album dropped at midnight, bringing a sense of fulfillment to both the artist and his dedicated fanbase. In a heartfelt message shared on social media, Lojay expressed, “I put my heart into this. I hope you all love it as much as I loved creating this body of work.” And from the initial reactions, it seems fans are indeed in love!
The album comprises 14 tracks, showcasing Lojay’s immense talent and creativity. Although it features some of the hottest names in the industry, such as South African pop sensation Tyla, Nigerian star Victony, and Colombian producer Feid, the album is very much a reflection of Lojay’s unique style and flair. One standout that is already making waves is the lead single, “Somebody Like You,” which was released in February, followed by the catchy “Mwah” featuring Odeal just two months later.
As part of the album promotion, Lojay has also graced other tracks, including a memorable verse on Adekunle Gold’s “Bobo”, and a standout appearance on frequent collaborator Sarz’s latest project, 'Protect Sarz At All Cost.' Alongside his musical endeavors, the talented singer has an exciting tour lined up to support the album, kicking off in London on November 18th.
Among the album highlights are tracks like “Memories” — a dynamic duet with Tyla — and feel-good tunes like “Shiver,” “Suru,” and the P.Priime-produced closer, “Alright.” The harmonious collaborations and the infusion of vibrant beats give listeners a taste of the energetic Afropop scene currently thriving across Africa.
Lojay’s creative journey has also seen him team up with several renowned producers including Black Culture, Louddaaa, TSB, and of course, Sarz. Together, they’ve crafted an album that is not only entertaining but also resonates with the pulse of contemporary Afropop.

As African artists continue to break barriers and shape the global music landscape, Lojay’s compelling debut is a testament to the vibrant creativity blossoming across the continent.
