Almost every other day there are new artistes emerging and new songs released and we understand it might be hard for you to sieve through this mass to discover what’s good.

Pulse Music weekly discovery is a feature to help you discover new Nigerian singers, rappers and bands we think you should add to your playlist.

Our new discovery is Mary Akpa.

Akpa makes music encapsulated with a story. The singer has a smooth trance-like voice that draws you into her lyrics and her world. Scanning through her Souncloud channel, the first song she posted was three years ago - titled ‘Brave’. The singer’s silky voice intertwined with guitar strings and resolute lyrics.

The Nigerian born vocalist exhibits the diversity of her voice on ‘Don’t stand in my way’ a futuristic R&B song containing rhythmic beats and muted electro sounds.

Mary is a romantic at heart and reveals this in her music. On her most recent song, the San Diego based singer reveals she found love ‘That day on the train’.

If you’ve got an ear for jazz, R&B and soul music, you should add Mary Akpa to your playlist.
