Ent.News: Mr Eazi Unveils New Group, ‘ChopLife Soundsystem’

 Mr Eazi has announced the launch of his new group, ‘Choplife Soundsystem,’ which will feature UK-based, Kenyan-born Afrobeats DJ, DJ Edu, as its resident DJ, alongside a group of contributing DJs, artists and producers from across the continent.

Mr Eazi will be the primary vocalist on ‘Choplife Soundsystem’ recordings and will also serve as its ‘MC’ or what he calls the ‘Minister of Enjoyment’ at live events.

The name ‘Choplife Soundsystem’ is derived from the West African pidgin slang phrase ‘chop life,’ meaning ‘enjoy life,’ along with the traditional sound systems that are the backbone of Jamaican music culture.

The group will put a modern, African twist on soundsystem culture, incorporating genres like amapiano and afrobeats to curate the ultimate African party experience, both on original studio recordings and at curated live events.

The group launched with events in Cotonou, Benin, Stockholm, Sweden, and Kigali, Rwanda, in 2022, inspired by Mr Eazi’s successful Ghana holiday party, ‘Detty Rave.’

Further details about ‘Choplife Soundsystem,’ including new music releases, partnerships, and live events, will be announced by Mr Eazi later this Spring.

“I am going back to where I started from, hosting the biggest parties at uni, That’s how I started singing. I am looking forward to this new and fun ride, and I cannot wait for all the music to start dropping and the accompanying live experience,” said Mr Eazi.
