Album Review: CEO (Chief Executive Odogwu) by Nito-P

By Isaac Oladapo

Nito-P’s CEO (Chief Executive Odogwu) is a vibrant Afrobeat and Afro-fusion project that seamlessly blends African rhythms with contemporary sounds. 13 songs Running for 39 minutes, the album is a celebration of versatility, collaboration, and storytelling. Featuring fellow talented names like Terry Apala, Eno Blaze, Singerpour, and more, the album is packed with dynamic energy and emotional resonance.

“Pack and Go” opens the album while “ThankGod” (feat. Terry Apala) follows with gratitude and determination, propelled by Terry Apala’s signature style. “Forever” (feat. Eno Blaze) stands out with its lush melodies and heartfelt lyricism, showcasing the duo’s chemistry. Meanwhile, “Odogwu” (feat. Singerpour) is a confident anthem reflecting Nito-P’s rise and resilience.

On singles like “Peri-Peri”, “God Did”, and “Jowowa”, Nito-P showcased his versatility. The album explores themes of ambition (“Brother” featuring Youngdada), love (“Jeje” with Singerpour), and social consciousness (“Ghetto Life” featuring Yaw Bankz). Each track feels intentional, with Nito-P’s lyrical focus on personal growth and celebrating his African heritage.

The production is rich and layered, blending traditional African instrumentation with modern beats. Collaborations enhance the album’s depth, with TEO SMA bringing charisma on “Shordy” and Johntay creating magic on the soulful “Made in Heaven.”

CEO cements Nito-P’s place as a creative force in Afrobeat. The album balances introspection with celebratory vibes, making it a compelling listen. Its collaborative spirit and diverse soundscapes make it a must-listen for Afrobeat fans worldwide.
