Nigerian Afro fusion artiste Maxter B has officially opened his 2026 music calendar with the release of his latest single titled Tasty, a rhythm rich and emotionally layered record that blends street pop bounce with intentional storytelling.
The new single comes as a follow up to his previous six track project Worry Dem, a body of work that positioned the singer as a voice of resilience and self belief. While Worry Dem focused largely on determination and navigating life’s pressures, Tasty sees Maxter B exploring a softer and more reflective dimension of his artistry.
On the track, the artiste leans into the conversation around love and ambition in today’s fast paced society. Through catchy melodies and culturally familiar expressions, he questions the widely accepted belief that financial success should always come before emotional connection.
“What is the use of success if there is no one to share it with?” the singer implies through the record’s narrative, delivering his message over an infectious Afro inspired instrumental.
The standout hook, “I am so Tasty for love oh,” gives the song its identity. Simple, chantable, and instantly memorable, the chorus is designed for crowd engagement while maintaining emotional honesty. References to rice and jollof further ground the record in relatable everyday imagery, making it accessible to a wide audience.
Speaking about the direction of the single, Maxter B noted that the song represents growth beyond survival and hustle.
“After Worry Dem, I wanted to express another side of myself. Growth is not only about overcoming struggle. It is also about embracing love and connection. Tasty reflects that maturity,” he said.
With its blend of Afrobeats rhythm and street pop sensibility, Tasty positions the artiste strongly within Nigeria’s evolving contemporary music space. The single signals a new phase that balances confidence with vulnerability, and energy with introspection. Tasty is currently streaming on all major digital platforms.
