In this new entry in our ‘Diamonds In The Rough’ category, we would like to introduce you to upcoming artist Neutral Face and his brand new album titled Unleashed.
Neutral Face is back—and he’s not holding anything back.
The Nigerian-born musical machine, Odjugo Godbless—better known by his dream-given moniker Neutralface—has just dropped his highly anticipated album Unleashed, and it’s exactly what the title promises: raw, energetic, and impossible to ignore. At the heart of this project is a fiery Afrobeat anthem designed to move bodies and lift spirits. With rhythms that ignite dance floors and lyrics that speak from the soul, Unleashed isn’t just music—it’s a moment.
Since launching his musical journey in Sapele, Delta State in 2005, Neutral Face has built a reputation as a prolific and passionate creator. He’s a self-taught artist who started out with little more than a dream and an unshakable drive. Fast-forward to today, and he’s penned over a thousand tracks, thanks to a near-superhuman ability to write and compose full songs in just 15 minutes. That intensity and dedication are baked into every beat of Unleashed.
Dubbed the “musical machine” for good reason, Neutral Face’s workflow borders on legendary. But it’s not just speed—it’s the soul, the experience, and the deep emotional current flowing through each track that sets him apart. His inspiration, as he puts it, “comes from above,” guiding his hands and his heart to craft music that resonates beyond sound.
Unleashed is a testament to that divine energy. The album embodies Neutral Face’s signature blend of studio precision and emotional storytelling—bridging polished production with the raw truth of lived experience. This is Afrobeat with teeth, sharpened by years of genre-blending experimentation from hip hop to rap, all grounded in Neutralface’s Nigerian roots and inspired by icons like 2Pac, Bob Marley, and Fela Kuti.
In a scene that’s constantly evolving, Unleashed stands tall. It’s not just a return—it’s a statement. Neutral Face has arrived with a sound that demands attention, respect, and plenty of volume.
So whether you’re a long-time fan or a new listener, one thing’s for sure: Neutral Face isn’t holding back—and with Unleashed, neither should you.
