Award-winning Afrobeats star Omah Lay is set to drop his highly anticipated second album, Clarity of Mind, on May 16, 2025. The announcement was made via the Instagram handle of his record label, Keyqaad.
The album follows his critically acclaimed debut, Boy Alone. Ahead of its release, Omah Lay has already put out singles like Holy Ghost, one of Apple Music Nigeria’s most-streamed songs in 2024, and Moving. He also made guest appearances on tracks with Kaestyle and DJ Spinall.
In a recent interview on the Zang Sang Show, Omah Lay revealed he had to scrap a previous album after an artist he admired allegedly copied his sound. He then re-recorded Clarity of Mind, which he believes will be “the greatest in the history of Afrobeats.”
Since his breakout with the Get Layd EP in 2020, Omah Lay has solidified his status as one of Nigeria’s top artists. A Headies Next Rated winner in 2021, he continues to impress with his unique writing, soulful music, and genre fusion. With his upcoming album, he aims to further cement his place among the new generation of Afrobeats superstars.
