Album: PersWaysion by Swayvee

PersWaysion is the intimate new EP from Nigerian singer, songwriter, and producer Swayvee, marking the first entry in his conceptual series, A Yearner's Diary . Known for his melodic versatility and genre-blending sound, Swayvee delivers an 8-track project that maps the internal landscape of attraction—moving through desire, fantasy, vulnerability, obsession, and emotional surrender . The title is a clever play on his name, framing the experience as a persuasion exerted by both the artist and the woman at the centre of his thoughts .

Released on August 14, 2026, the EP explores the blurred line between wanting someone and being entirely consumed by them . Instead of settling into one mood, Swayvee moves fluidly between smooth Afro-R&B, melodic Afro-fusion, and energetic sounds—giving the project a cohesive yet varied feel . Tracks like the warm "You're Mine" with Wizard Chan and the vibrant "Spaceship" featuring JayJayy and Bola Bmh demonstrate this range . The upbeat "Selense", produced by ZARRTHEMAKER, takes inspiration from the popular Nigerian slang associated with a stylish dance move , while the hypnotic "Intoxica" leans into romantic obsession as a metaphor for losing yourself in another person . "Get Lucky" is another notable track produced by ZARRTHEMAKER , and "G-Shock" features contributions from Scottyolorin and Fergiee .

The EP features a strong mix of collaborations that add depth without overshadowing Swayvee's presence. Wizard Chan, Keleya, Scottyolorin, Fergiee, JayJayy, and Bola Bmh each bring their own flavour , with the cross-cultural collaboration on "Spaceship" closing the project on a cohesive and adventurous note . Production on the project includes contributions from ZARRTHEMAKER and Skonthetrack , with polished instrumentation and smooth basslines anchoring the sound.

With PersWaysion, Swayvee invites listeners into his mind, offering the first volume of a series that promises to explore the complicated emotions of longing and connection. It is a confident opening statement that confirms his willingness to stretch beyond formulas and keep his work feeling fresh .
