Lagos-born singer L.A.X releases his first single of the year titled “Loke” – out now via Rasaki Music Limited/EMPIRE.

The mid-tempo record, produced by Magicsticks (Asake, Ckay, Davido, Spinall, Bnxn), offers themes of triumph, elevation, inspiration, and success, where L.A.X is able to flex his vocal abilities throughout the song.

On the record, he gives a performance that is a testament to his rise against all odds and is accompanied by a visual treatment, with an official music video on the way.

L.A.X shares this record on the heels of a momentous 2023, where he completed a 25-city European tour after the release of his No Bad Vibes album and an 11-city summer warm-up run across Germany, Brussels, Turkey, and more.

The No Bad Vibes album featured Black Sherif, Ayra Starr, Konshens, and more, peaked at No. 4 on Apple Music Nigeria, and landed on Uproxx’s Best Albums of 2023 list. No Bad Vibes served as a follow-up to his 2021 breakout Zaza Vibes, which cemented his name on a worldwide scale and featured the lead single “Sempe,” which amassed 142M+ streams on Spotify alone.

L.A.X has been churning out a mixture of club bangers and serenades since 2014, including “PEPE” ft Davido, “Go Low,” “Caro” & “Ginger” with Wizkid, “Faster,” and “Gwara Gwara,” which propelled him to over 700M career streams.

Globally known for his signature fusion of Afrobeats, Afropop, and Amapiano, L.A.X has consecutively proven his musical abilities.

Having worked with some of the most sought-after artists, including Tiwa Savage, Mr Eazi, Maleek Berry, Simi, and more, L.A.X continues to grow as an extraordinary artist out of Nigeria. Coming up, he’s got more new music on the way and a run of shows this fall throughout the UK and Europe.
