EP explores life in Lagos, UK — Artiste

An up-and-coming artiste, Abraham King, aka Paramanchi, has revealed that his experiences living in Lagos and the United Kingdom have shaped his music.
In an interview with Sunday Scoop, he said, “My forthcoming EP is a sonic journey through the vibrant streets of Lagos to days in the UK and the exotic and artistic lifestyle in between, blending traditional Afrobeats rhythms with modern production techniques and infectious hooks.”
Reflecting on his entry into the music scene, Paramachi recounted how he began experimenting with beats and melodies on his laptop as a teenager, adding that his passion for music had grown since then.
He also noted that the theme of love and African pride influenced the EP. “My EP titled Gratitude explores themes of love, self-empowerment and African pride. My lyrics are both personal and universally relatable. I am on a mission to make fans move.”
Talking about some of the influences on his music, Paramachi said, “Growing up in Lagos, I was surrounded by the sounds of Fela Kuti, King Sunny Adé, Sade Adu, Lagbaja and other legends.”
