For his Black Music Month 2019 playlist, Apple Music Up Next alum Mr Eazi chose to take listeners on a trip through influences, featuring the work of Tuface, Mad Melon & Mountain Black, J. Martins, and D'Banj, among others. “Most of the songs in this playlist in no particular order have shaped not just my career but multiple scenes across Africa,” the Nigerian singer-songwriter says. “'Touchin Body' did a great job in uniting the francophone African music scene with anglophone pop music, thereby producing a true African hit and encouraging collaboration across Africa. D'Banj’s 'Tongolo' kind of created the new scene and made me personally switch from having a 75% foreign playlist to a 99.9% Afropop playlist at most times. It made me proud to be African. It was the coolest sh*t I had ever seen, and that's a similar story for most of the records in this playlist.”
