Asuquomo left a lasting impression with the release of OT Riddim in 2020, a four-track EP that offered a glimpse into his range as an artist. Since then, his profile’s grown with even more critical acclaim as he further showcased his evolution on DIOBU. He’s preparing to usher in a new era this year, and kicks off the campaign with his latest single, “Shotgun.”
Asuquomo’s latest single leans back towards a drill-centric sound that he introduced on “Northside” off of OT RIDDIM while remaining rooted in his foundations as a storyteller. The urgency in his tone meshes with the production, as he recounts true events from his trip to Nigeria in Oct. 2021 when a state-imposed curfew was instated in Lagos and captured headlines globally. On “Shotgun,” Asuquomo’s innate storytelling abilities weave through his elevated technical prowess, providing a promising glimpse into his next project, INI MINI MO, due out later this spring.

Quotable Lyrics
Ini Mini Mo-mo
Take a break to catch a breath
Take a picture, take a screenshot, take a photo
I am the prize
I’ve been buzzin’ but I just arrived
