US billionaire rapper Jay Z has unveiled the tracklist for his forthcoming African-themed album titled ‘Ascension‘ and it features Nigeria’s Olamide and Femi Kuti.
The album which will be released in a couple of weeks also has Nasty C and Sarkodie on it.
On the foreign front, Ascension features Beyoncé, Rick Ross, H.E.R and the duo of the Lighthouse family.
Speaking on the 16-track album, Jay-Z said:
“I’ve always wanted to get in touch with my roots and connect to the motherland. You know, Africa is blessed with so much talent and I felt like it was time to tap into that resource. The Ascension is not just talking or focusing on Africa but it’s also about me giving back to the people, familiarizing with the culture and connecting more with the motherland.”
