Nigerian singer-songwriter Peruzzi makes a bold return with SABALI, his fourth studio album. The 17-track project reflects growth, patience, and passion, wrapped in genre-spanning sounds that highlight his range. SABALI, which means “patience,” captures the spirit of reflection and resilience after a creative pause.
Blending Afrobeats, highlife, and Afro-soul, the album showcases Peruzzi’s R&B-leaning vocals over vibrant percussion and rich melodies. From romantic ballads to street anthems, he delivers stories rooted in love, hustle, and tradition. His voice glides with warmth across mid-tempo grooves, creating moments of vulnerability and celebration.
SABALI starts strong with Die It, a confessional opener. Apala Drill with Davido brings a thrilling mix of tradition and trap. Perfect Situation reunites Peruzzi with Mayorkun, Dremo, and Davido in a nostalgic DMW moment full of charm. Cooking Pot taps Jeriq for a gritty, streetwise banger.
The standout Nuff Respect featuring Jesse Jagz adds lyrical depth. Mad Oh with The Cavemen injects highlife soul, while You with Kemuel offers a tender tribute to love. Other highlights include Ecstasy with JujuBoy and Nana Kwabena, Legalize as a solo standout, and Time Of My Life with Esoterica, closing the project on a high note.
Peruzzi also brings in Timaya, Zlatan, Bella Shmurda, Terri, The Flowolf, Gazo, and more. The features never overshadow him; instead, they enhance the album’s narrative and sonic depth.
SABALI is already climbing charts, with fans praising its emotional weight and replay value. It’s a major moment for Peruzzi, who reasserts his place as a melodic force in Afrobeats. Available now on all major streaming platforms, the album invites listeners to reflect, groove, and embrace the journey of growth.
