Kabusa Oriental Choir is a leading Nigerian contemporary music group known for their choral representations of popular Afrobeats hits. Their mashup of a song by Kizz Daniel and DJ Spinall went viral in no time. Initially, they gained recognition for their covers, but over time they began releasing their own originals, earning even more love and appreciation from their fans worldwide.
Kabusa is known for their playful, carefree viral content, but with ‘Folded’ they also showcase impeccable emotional sincerity. The song beautifully blends smooth Afro pop production with soothing choral textures. What’s so moving about the whole song is the vocals and the gorgeous harmonies. Instead of centring the vocals on just one singer, the song is able to soar both emotionally and melodically with a communal feel. The soulful harmonies allow the emotion in the lyrics to feel palpably moving. The song carries an organic Afrobeat flavour, with the focus on musical authenticity and warmer, more soulful soundscapes.

The rich intricacy in the sounds creates an emotionally resonant atmosphere that simply stirs the soul right in the first listen. What’s also admirable about Kabusa Oriental Choir is their common fervour for the art, which makes every sonic element of the track pop out. With gospel-influenced harmonies and emotionally fervent vocal arrangement, the song ‘Folded’ stands out as one of the most poignant Afrobeats releases.
