LAX’s debut album, Rasaki would have been released if he hadn’t lost his hard drive. Rasaki had been announced since last year, but it has not seen the light of day.
“Right now I’m working on my album. Last year I was working on it but I lost my hard drive on which I had close to 90 songs on,” LAX revealed in an interview with Star Tracker.
The singer explained in an interview that losing his hard drive compelled him to try a different sound. LAX noted that his music has now taken another dimension because of it.
“I felt like there was a reason I lost those songs, so I focused on creating a new sound for myself.
“So when you hear my music now you will notice that the sound is different from what I had on “Caro” or “Ginger”. It’s now a different vibe all together.”
Rasaki will be ready by the end of the year. Although, a proper release date has not been set.
LAX confirmed that the album would feature Victoria Kimani, Davido, Young Bin and Galala legend, Daddy Showkey.
The singer said Daddy Showkey’s potential appearance on the tape was a move to avoid copyright infringement issues.
“When I recorded the song it had something about Daddy Showkey’s lyrics. So, when my manager heard it he thought of putting Daddy Showkey on it because it will help in preventing copyright infringement scandal.”
The album, Rasaki is one of the highly anticipated albums in Nigeria since it was first announced. However, the persistent delay in its release is appearing to wean attention away from it.
