Blaqbonez dropped NOMADINHO: 4TH PRIME through Chocolate City Music, and the 15-track, 38-minute project already has people talking before they even get to the final song. It comes off the back of a sold-out UK tour and follows his 2025 album No Excuses and its April 2026 deluxe edition. The man has not slowed down once.
The album opens with I Love This featuring Igwe Aka and moves through CA$H EVERYDAY, Big Performer, IKEBE 3000 and Chanel before landing on FYP with Monochrome, JUSTINA with Ruger and Sample Ekwe, which nods to incantation singer Egertton. Finesse You with TML Vibez closes it all out. Victony, Ruger, TML Vibez, Igwe Aka and Monochrome all show up across the project, but Asake appears on two tracks and carries a lot of the album's momentum. The two have been friends since their undergraduate days at Obafemi Awolowo University, and it shows.
Chanel became Blaqbonez's first No. 1 single on Nigeria's Official Top 100 and climbed to No. 5 on Billboard's Afrobeats chart. IKEBE 3000 followed with darker drums and choral layers, proving the Asake collaborations are not just fan service but genuine creative chemistry.
The title itself does a lot of work. The nomad idea speaks to an artist constantly moving between sounds and personas, while "Fourth Prime" signals a new chapter. Throughout the project, Blaqbonez weaves in references to Nigerian pop culture and his Igbo heritage, making this feel personal even when the production is at its most expansive. NOMADINHO: 4TH PRIME is streaming everywhere now, and if Chanel is anything to go by, this album is just getting started.
