flinchvision 4 of 31 scaled

Afro Fusion sensation, OOSHA , has dropped his highly anticipated body of work dubbed “OOSHATIDE” featuring 12 distinct tracks such as “Caesar place ,” DND,” “OOSHATIDE,” “Pull Up,” and “Over u.” The artist said of the new release in a statement: “On this project, I connect with my inner flame, It’s like an outburst on the inside of me that I’ve held in for too long. It’s not fueled with negativity, rather it’s fueled with drive, passion, and destiny. What people will hear on this project is a little exhale from me, only that it comes with fire.” OOSHA music has frequently divided opinions. his flitting across a range of genres. His output on his new album OOSHATIDE showed this off, earning him the love of a dedicated fanbase as OOSHA continues to salute the salacious nature of Afro Fusion, but his vocal deliveries are far-ranging, existing on the seams of diasporic affiliations and dreamy inventiveness. His melodies sometimes sound like mutterings from the depth of sex-induced sleep, but with his endless cache of Nigerian references.
