Jidenna recently dropped a pair of singles on Friday in the lead up to his upcoming album, 85 to Africa. While "Tribe" finds Jidenna rapping over bass-heavy trap drums and a soulful sample, "Sufi Woman" is a smooth afropop jam—the perfect display of his musical dexterity.

His upcoming project speaks to the rapper’s journey since the release of his 2017 album The Chief; living in various cities across Africa after being evicted from a rental home the owner foreclosed on without notifying him right before the beginning of his last tour. In these temporary spaces around the continent, the project took shape.
