When I interviewed Phlow a few months ago she spoke briefly about her upcoming EP with Swedish Producer Ryko. The 5 minute mini EP Asuai represents the culmination of their work. Utilising a unique format the Nigerian rapper delivers 4 verses and choruses over 4 different beats from Ryko that form the 5 minute offering.

Asuai translates to My Year in the Igbo dialect of Ukwani. The 4 songs trace the path of a relationship from the giddy butterflies on Little Girl, Big ‘Ole World to the heart breaking The Exit.

You can listen to Phlow discussing her plans for the Asuai and how she discovered Ryko on Soundcloud in my interview below.
