Fresh off his successful releases with “Modupe,”and “Belle Full,” Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Crayon continues to leave an indelible mark on the music scene, as he releases his highly-anticipated debut album, “Trench To Triumph.”
The 13-track album delves into intimate subjects, personal development, and solidifies the artist’s artistic trajectory as a versatile maestro. Simultaneously, release also serves as a platform for the “Trench Kid” singer to establish his prominence within the commanding Afro music landscape.
The album, which was executively produced by Don Jazzy, demonstrates Crayon’s unwavering commitment to pushing the limits of creativity, as he enlists some of Africa’s most exciting talents, including fellow Mavins member and superstar Ayra Starr, Oxlade, Victony, Yababuluku Boyz, and others, to further solidify his position in the music industry.
Speaking on the making of the album, Crayon says, “‘Trench To Triumph’ is a carefully put together body of work where I have poured myself. When you listen carefully, you’ll hear my story as it’s unfolding, my relationship with Calvary and how it’s been instrumental in my growth.”
He adds, “Trenches in this case does not mean poverty, it’s different things to everyone, it could mean your life journey, trench could be translated to mean a state of mind here too, so it’s whatever you translate it to be personally. From a good state to a bad state, from darkness to light, from confusion to clarity etc.”
