“The first time I realized that music could be therapy to myself. I was saying things i couldn’t say, I realized that some things I said on the album I couldn’t say to myself.”- Mr Eazi
‘The Evil Genius’ is Mr Eazi’s debut studio album and a first-of-its-kind fusion of African music and visual art.
A pan-African mix of Afrobeats, Afropop, gospel, highlife and folklore, the project is described as a scrapbook of Mr Eazi’s travels and experiences over the last few years, and a window inside to his mind during this time.

The Evil Genius showcases his most personal material, delving into subjects such as love, hate, friendship, betrayal, loneliness and family. The album is thoughtfully segmented into three distinct movements, or acts, guiding the listener on a transcendental expedition from the zenith of pride to the nadir of humility, from the zenith of elation to the abyss of sorrow, thus encompassing the entire spectrum of the human emotional experience.
Mr Eazi extends a compelling invitation, urging you to partake in this unique auditory and visual odyssey. Each song within the album harmoniously converges with its corresponding visual masterpiece under the banner of #TheEvilGenius, offering an immersive and multi-dimensional encounter with his artistry.
