Since debuting as Mavin Records’ youngest signee in the early two thousands, Reekado Banks has delivered a string of chart‑topping hits including “Oluwa Ni” and “Like,” earning multiple Headies Awards and collaborations with artists such as Tiwa Savage and Sarkodie.

Available now on all major streaming platforms, “Maami” confirms Reekado Banks’s growth as both songwriter and producer. As one of Nigeria’s most consistent hitmakers, he continues to shape the sound of modern Afropop through albums that balance commercial appeal and artistic ambition.
