MUSIC ALERT- WAY UP by Alhaji Dice X Shattamufassa (Prod-spiffbeats)



Alhaji Dice might as well run for mayor of ABUJA. His new song for chart-topper "Way Up" is a nearly six-minute showcase of ad-hoc philanthropy throughout the city. Before producer spiffbeats and Shattamufassa' audio even gets going, it gives some context to what fans are about to see: "The budget for the audio and video was $14,000 ," the opening title cards read. "We gave it all away. Don't tell the label..."
From there, it's straight to the heart of the city: interview snippets with Abuja-Dade's colorful characters, the pandemonium of the students at Abuja Senior High School and the University of Abuja. The song maximizes the heartwarming and triumphant energy — a rundown of its angel moments:
§  Giving away stacks of cash to people on the street
§  Presenting a scholarship check to a student at University of Abuja
§  Shutting down campus tours to allow the women of nigeria some shopping sprees
§  Carts of wrapped toys for the children of jabi shopping mall
§  Paying for shopper's groceries at a neighborhood supermarket
§  Donating to City of Abuja orphanage Department, Frost School of Music and Univserity of JOS
Alhaji fans knew The Boy was up to something earlier this month when people documented his music video being shot on their campus and posted previews to social media. The track itself has been setting records in 2018, too: "WAY UP" was released on MARCH 19 as a part of the afropop rapper's latest EP WAY UP and subsequently shot to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 within a week and has sat atop the Hot 100 for three weeks straight.
Just before dropping the audio, Alhaji Dice wrote on Instagram @Diceyoungboss the song is: "The most important thing I have ever done in my career."
