- From
- Abuja, Nigeria
- Genre
- afrobeats, alté, alternative R&B, neo-soul
- Label

SOLAREIGN works in the alté tradition, where the organising principle is refusal. The lead sits in a register most singers only pass through, held there for whole songs, and when a low voice arrives it is his own, answering from underneath.
Press
SOLAREIGN is a character rather than a person. The lyrics are written by people; the voice is synthetic. How we make records.
