Rising Afrobeats artist Para (PARA) meets global listeners with his first mini album.
At 6 p.m. on the 7th, Para's mini album 'Ola (Ola)' will be released on various online music sites.
Ola, which means wave in Spanish, is the album title that conveys the idea that music, which starts with one person, spreads to the world like a small ripple growing as it crosses the sea.
The title track of the album, also called "Ola," is a song that expresses the thrill of falling in love over rhythmic drums and a smooth melody. Para's distinctive vocals blend with a relaxed groove to create a sophisticated Afro-fusion sound.
The mini album also includes a total of five songs, from "Better," which captures a global Afrobeats sensibility, to the cheerful and distinctive "Chihuahua (feat. Emarshal)," "Change (feat. Kriss killz)," which adds hip-hop sensibility to Afrobeats rhythms, and the addictive-hooked "Loco (feat. Insane chips)."
Collaborations with Nigerian artists are another notable point. From Emarshal to Kriss killz and Insane chips, local artists working in Afrobeats, hip-hop and other genres participate as featured artists, raising expectations that they will show unique synergy with Para.
Para, who performs Afrobeats, a modern African popular music, plans to announce his new beginning through his first mini album. He aims to present a single wave that connects different rhythms and emotions of Korea and Africa through music and deliver resonance to listeners around the world.
Previously, Para directly entered Nigeria to widely promote the appeal of Afrobeats and received focused attention from local media. Recently, he signed an exclusive contract with Altist Label, led by producer R.Tee, and announced he will carry out wider activities.
