Nigerian afrobeat mainstays BNXN (singer-songwriter) and Sarz (producer) recently announced a collaborative project named The Game Needs Us. Out now is the first single, “Back Outside”.

The mellifluous song blends crisp percussion with upbeat guitar melodies and moody synths. The choral vocal harmonies round up “Back Outside” into a fun anthem.

His first release in a while, BNXN describes “Back Outside” as a “breath of fresh air, an acknowledgment of intentional delay and all that it came with. More than anything, it reflects my current state of mind and a promise of what’s to come and more.“

With summer around the corner, “Back Outside” is guaranteed to be on rotation–add it to your playlist.
