Featuring friends and collaborators alike such as D’Mile (Usher), Jack Dine (Stormzy), Jonah Christian (Nicki Minaj), IzyBeats (Mala Rodríguez) and Kojo Asamoah (Ari Lennox), who have their own unique sounds and influences, the EP shows a new and reflective side of the “musical polyglot” (LA Times). Additionally, the project features industry heavyweights like Don Toliver, the Travis Scott co-signed Houston rapper, and Shenseea, the “Jamaican princess of Dancehall” (The Guardian). Studying Abroad is Masego’s most ambitious, enjoyable effort to date.
The visual for “Mystery Lady” ft. Don Toliver is out today from 7pm SAST. Masego’s intoxicating vocals set the mood as he walks through a tropical paradise pursuing his mysterious love.
