Nonso Amadi & Kwesi Arthur's 'Comfortable' Will Get You In Weekend Mode

Nonso Amadiis one of the standout acts from a young wave of Nigerian musicians blending afro-fusion with RnB and much more. He's now dropping the brand new single "Comfortable," an addictive self-produced track that sees him linking up with bubbling Ghanaian act Kwesi Arthur, which we're premiering below today.

"Comfortable" is built on woozy synth keys and sparse beat work, all spearheaded by Nonso Amadi's vocals about wanting freedom in a relationship.

"The song is inspired by experiences with having a girl over and not wanting them to get too comfortable by staying too long with you," says Nonso Amadi. "I thought it'll be interesting to create a song around this 'cos it's not a perspective were used to hearing from guys very often."


"I met up with Kwesi for the first time in Ghana last year December and played him some songs I had been working on already, this was the one he vibed with the most and it just was an organic collaboration for us."

"Comfortable" follows Nonso Amadi's recent afro-fusion single, "Emergency," which is also worth checking out.
