Album: HYBRID Album by Shoday

The debut album often defines an artist’s identity. For rising Nigerian star Shoday, HYBRID is more than a collection of songs — it’s a carefully curated introduction that blends Afrobeats, R&B, pop, and modern production philosophies into one cohesive statement. The record positions Shoday as an artist ready to bridge local sonic flavors with global pop sensibilities, and its release marks an important step for his career trajectory.

Born Shodade Solomon Segun and raised in Lagos (Ogun State origins are often cited in profiles), Shoday has been building momentum with singles and EP work ahead of this debut. His style blends melodic Afrobeats phrasing with pop songwriting and R&B vocal textures; streaming profiles and label pages show a steady growth in monthly listeners and regional traction, which makes HYBRID a timely full-length reveal.

HYBRID’s rollout leaned on social teasers and official tracklist reveals on platforms like Instagram and music blogs, culminating in a release window in early February. Promotional highlights included announced features (a strategic move to widen reach) and pre-release single pushes to TikTok and streaming playlists. Multiple outlets and official artist channels confirmed the February release and showcased the album artwork and tracklist ahead of launch.
