In a recent interview on Apple Music’s The Ebro Show, Show Dem Camp (SDC) shared insights into why they named their new album “No Love in Lagos.” According to the duo Tec and Ghost, the title reflects the harsh reality of life in Nigeria’s economic and entertainment capital, where every man is for himself.
“Hustling is the order of the day,” Tec explained. “Everybody is after their own hustle, and nobody is really looking out for anyone else.”
The album, released on August 9, 2024, continues SDC’s brilliant storytelling, combining with The Cavemen’s neo-highlife music and Nsikak’s magical strings to create a captivating album.
With powerhouse features from Obongjayar, Tim Lyre, Moelogo, and Ruti, and helmed by super-producer Spax, “No Love in Lagos” is a first-of-its-kind collaboration between two duos at the forefront of Nigeria’s alternative scene. The album showcases the elastic talent of Show Dem Camp, The Cavemen, and David Nsikak while pushing the boundaries of Nigerian music.
“No Love in Lagos” is a must-listen for fans of alternative music and those interested in the unique sound of Nigeria’s alternative scene.
