Afro Fusion Wunderkind Artist Nappy Releases Single “Knock Shii Up”
Nigeria’s Afro-Fusion artist Nappy drops his new single and the official music video “Knock Shii Up.” “Knock Shii Up” is Nappy’s first single release since dropping his viral single “Whine That Ting,” featuring Bella Shmurda, in 2021. The music video is produced by Cr8tive Row’s Daps & Dalia Dias and filmed in Atlanta, Georgia. “Knock Shii Up” is Nappy’s response to negativity and his conscious decision to not be impacted by pessimistic opinions. According to Nappy, “The meaning of ‘Knock Shii Up’ is to shut things down and face life head-on with tremendous confidence.”
“Knock Shii Up” is a dynamic track under the genre Afro-Fusion, which consists of R&B and Hip Hop in the Nigerian culture. The beat creates an Afro-pop sound with organic live instruments, from the aggressive bass drums to the soft keys and vibrant strings. Nappy’s voice completes the track with his mellow vocals behind the chorus and rap style favoring UK drill music. The single’s cover artwork teases the audience with a straightforward message of Nappy loading weapons with a beautiful female and money surrounding his feet. The significant meaning is that Nappy prepares for obstacles attempting to disturb his peace.
The title “Knock Shii Up” describes his actions and attitude towards life by shutting it down. The project is inspired by Nappy’s positive views on his lifestyle, and he motivates listeners to take control of their lives and decisions. The visuals support the lyrics and Nappy’s idea of loyal friends and a lover that supports his choices and lifestyle. The video showcases different aspects of Nappy’s life as an artist in the studio with his lady and friends hanging out with him. Nappy displays moments of being a romantic who cherishes his lady as he rides freely through the night with her.
