Award-Winning Singer, Songwriter and Producer

With his darkly sparkling vocals, evocative storytelling, and contagious rhythms, Omah Lay is one of Nigeria’s most talked about innovators. The 25-year-old singer and producer’s brand of Afro-fusion effortlessly pulls from his deep personal history with West Africa’s percussion-heavy highlife genre, as well as his enthusiasm for the popular sounds of his generation—from classic rap to the Afro-beats empire flourishing in his home base of Lagos. He released his major label debut album Boy Alone to critical praise in 2022 which saw him sell out his second U.S. headlining tour. Previously he released his two inventive EPs in 2020, Get Layd and What Have We Done. On each project his voice beautifully unravels tales that range from introspective to romantic to gratifyingly explicit, and expertly laid over lush and soulful production. Layered with vivid scenarios and heartfelt confessions, Omah Lay’s rich music not only depicts a young man daring to reveal his grittiest vices and innermost feelings, but also doubles as a fascinating window into Afro-fusion’s bright and expansive future.

This article takes you on a sonic journey through the life and passion of AG SOUL, exploring his eclectic musical influences, his evolution as a DJ, and his commitment to creating unforgettable experiences.

The Musical Tapestry of AG SOUL
AG SOUL's musical journey began in Gaborone, Botswana, where the vibrant sounds of local artists blending international influences resonated deeply with him. Growing up surrounded by the fusion of kwaito, hip-hop, and rock, AG SOUL developed a unique appreciation for a spectrum of genres.

In his own words, AG SOUL shares, "House caught me up in a world of feeling that I could only express by playing it to my friends and family." His sets, a rich blend of Deep House, Soulful House, Nu Disco, Tech House, and Lounge Music, stand out, providing listeners with a "wow-factor" that transforms the crowd's experience.

From School Beats to Vineyard Resonance

Crafting Happiness Through Music

Setting Himself Apart

"I believe that what sets me apart is my dedication to excellence and commitment to always giving 110%," he affirms. His collaborative approach and openness to ideas contribute to creating an extraordinary musical experience for his audience.

Dreaming Beyond Beats
