Known for his unique hip-hop sounds fused in Afrobeat vibes, Neyo P—the Nigeria born rapper based in Lagos is in Nairobi for a musical sejour, under which he is releasing twin videos and audios for: "Everything Pure" and "One Time". His rap is best described as a blend of Dagrin and 50 Cent-esque styles. The artist is coming out with fresh records that will be featured in his EP '4:19' which will be released this year.

Neyo P hopes that his upcoming EP will perform better than his debut album: Back Street Class, and is convinced that his time in East Africa and specifically Kenya, will make this possible because of the artistic inspiration flowing around the region.
Neyo-P talked about his upcoming EP saying, "So many people are afraid of failure, but what I've learned is that failure is a great teacher and if you're open to it, every mistake has a lesson to offer. I have learned more from failure than success, am not afraid of anything."
The artist who looks up to the likes of Angelique Kidjo and Dr. Alban added that his aim is to reach a wide African audience with his music, "My goal is to reach the world with my rap, and local dialect (Yoruba and Pidgin) because hip-hop is a force in the world and I realize that like all art, it holds up a mirror to society and shows us who we. I want to reflect on what people are feeling and thinking."
