MP3: @REZthaPoet – I Am [Prod. @Stormatique]

Following recent performances for big crowds in Paris & Cape Town, the renowned Nigerian artist REZthaPoet has released a new Stormatique-produced spoken-word record on identity & the celebration of heritage — in three languages: English, Yoruba, & Pidgin. “I Am” is the lead single off the ‘EXPOSIT: Deluxe Edition‘ album dropping in the next few weeks, a follow-up to REZ’s late-2015 EP of the same name.
