When Dr Sid released the deluxe edition of “Siduction” on December 23, 2013, he packed in 20 tracks spanning 1 hour and 13 minutes. This wasn’t just about adding a few bonus tracks to boost sales. The deluxe edition was about giving fans an expanded universe of his artistry, showcasing even more of the versatility he’d been preaching about.
Dr Sid brought in Wizkid, Sarkodie, Phyno, E.L, Don Jazzy, and Lynxxx to round out the feature list, creating what became one of the most star-studded Nigerian albums of that year. This was Mavin Records flexing its muscle and showing they could pull in talent from across the continent.
What made this deluxe edition special was how it didn’t feel like an afterthought. Everything flowed naturally, and the additional tracks weren’t just tacked on for the sake of it. They expanded the narrative, gave more context to Dr Sid’s artistic vision, and honestly made the whole experience feel more complete. At over an hour long, it’s a commitment, but one that pays off if you’re willing to take the journey with him.
