The absolute rave of the season. Straight out of, Okrika Rivers state, Wizard Chan, has stepped into the music scene, trailblazing into our screens and eardrums. Fresh off the win of “Best Alternative Song” at the Headies Awards for Earth Song, Wizard Chan has been a relentless creative, showing us that there is way more where that came from. Following his hot new release featuring Joeboy, Wizard Chan has also dropped his debut Album called, “The Messenger” gracing us with more of that Chan energy and maintaining the unique sound/style we cannot seem to get enough of. Ever the messenger, Chan bathes us in words of wisdom that have us replaying and thinking on its intensity, accompanying it with sweet music. As a huge fan of the likes of Damian Marley, it is no surprise that he begins the album with quite the opener on the first track. A soft reggae intro titled “Mr Sailor Man” smells and feels like mornings or new beginnings. Check out the beautiful, authentic, and spirit-filled album, bound to bless your ears with every listen.
