Humor god, Bright Okpocha, known by his stage name Basketmouth has surprised fans across the world with his new music album title 'Yabasi'.

The 10-tracked album is ready to compete with chart-topping artistes like WizKid and Davido as it presents carefully woven lyrics to a masterpiece of production and mixing.

It’s no joke! Nothing funny at all about this piece as the album can rock shoulders with the best, according to Ghanaian music curator, Kelly Nii Lartey Mensah who reviewed the album in Accra.

"We know Basketmouth is multi-talented, for example, he also acts both on stage and in screenplays. He’s a creative writer. Unbeknownst, the award-winning stand-up comedy kingpin could also do such authentic Nigerian music."

The playlist for 'Yabasi' album has songs like pepper soup, a down-low organic African sound. Track 2 and 3 titled “myself” and “ride or die” are more for slow jammers.

'Yabasi' by Basketmouth is a collection of Afrobeat, juju flavored traditional instrumentation and a touch of classic house music.

According to Basketmouth, 'Yabasi' which means “Onion” is a soundtrack album for his online sitcom, PapaBenji.

'Yabasi' by Basketmouth is currently available on all online stores loaded with amazing ingredients for a delicious pepper soup.
