After a four-year wait, Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Mayorkun has officially reclaimed his throne with the release of his highly anticipated third studio album “Still The Mayor.” Dropped on June 13, 2025, this 12-track masterpiece proves that some crowns are simply too heavy to fall – and Mayorkun’s reign as one of Nigeria’s premier hitmakers remains unshakeable.
Mayorkun, born Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, has never been one to shy away from bold declarations. With “Still The Mayor,” he’s not just making a comeback – he’s making a statement. The album title itself is a confident assertion that his position as “The Mayor of Lagos” remains unchallenged, four years after his last full-length project “Back In Office” (2021).
“He’s back like he never even left,” and this couldn’t be more accurate. Following months of strategic teasing and the release of the infectious single “Reason 2 Japa” in April 2025, Mayorkun has delivered a project that reminds the world why he continues to reign supreme in the Nigerian music landscape.
