Joeboy starts His new Body & Soul album with the BeatsByKO-produced song tagged, “Normally.” The piece features BNXN fka Buju, ODUMODUBLVCK. Listen, stream, read the lyrics, buy the track.

The two years between Somewhere Between Beauty & Magic and his much-anticipated sophomore album, 2023’s Body & Soul, have seen the singer grow and refine his music into a more rounded outlook on his experiences with attraction and romance. “Body & Soul is my state of mind,” he tells Apple Music. “It contains the topics I want to speak about. It’s a more vulnerable project and has a darker side. SBBM was really just good vibes all through. Body & Soul has a bit of darkness, which I feel is more realistic. Because there will always be good and bad. There’ll always be pros and cons.” In many ways, Body & Soul is a synthesis of his loving worldview as well as the pressures and pleasures of operating at the peak of Afropop. “The idea for this album is just that you can actually be yourself and you don’t have to be perfect,” he explains.

“All you need to do is be yourself and focus on being a better version of yourself.” Read on as Joeboy takes us through key tracks from Body & Soul.

“‘Normally’ talks about the kind of person I am. I don’t like stress and I don’t like drama. It doesn’t mean I won’t go through it if I need to, but it’s something that I would definitely avoid. So it’s just about me being a stress-free person, always focusing on the positives and doing my thing—also stating the fact that I’m a special person. Big shout-out to BNXN and ODUMODU on that song because everybody just came together and the synergy was one hundred.”
