Great Adamz ignites an irresistible AfroPop vibe with his recent release “Funke”
Great Adamz demonstrates an exceptional mastery of blending infectious rhythms with heartfelt narratives in his latest single, “Funke,” perfectly exemplifying why he is rapidly emerging as one of Afrobeats’ most exciting global voices. Now signed with Radikal Records and celebrating a significant accolade at The Northamptonshire Local Music Awards, the Nigerian-born, UK-based artist is confidently stepping into the global music spotlight, radiating charisma and an undeniable groove.
“Funke” evokes warmth with its Afrobeat pulse, layered percussion, and smooth melodies. However, it is Adamz’s delivery and sophisticated lyricism that truly impart a distinctive allure to the composition. His vocals navigate a spectrum of emotions, combining passion with a playful spirit, transforming a romantic prelude into an engaging danceable anthem. There is a magnetic energy in the way he sings, intimate yet universally relatable, making “Funke” equally suitable for the dancefloor and during reflective listening experiences.
The official music video complements this auditory experience, vividly illustrating the song’s Afrocentric romantic theme through visuals that encapsulate both cultural pride and modern aesthetics. It serves as a love letter not only to Funke, the muse of the song, but also to the vibrancy of Afrobeat itself, colorful, joyful, and irresistibly alive.
What sets Great Adamz apart is his ability to strike a balance between tradition and innovation. He honors the authentic roots of Afrobeat while adding a contemporary twist that resonates far beyond borders.
With “Funke”, he firmly establishes himself as a prominent vanguard among the emerging Afrobeat artists who are redefining the genre. He is on a promising trajectory of growth and unequivocally an artist to watch, actively shaping today’s soundscape and poised for soaring success in the music industry. Romantic, rhythmically intricate, and irresistibly engaging, “Funke” represents a celebration of love wrapped in the enchanting essence of Afrobeat.

Album Review
Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”
Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.
Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.
“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.
The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.
The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
