The first project, which will be titled Road To September 12th, will be an EP leading up to the release of a full-length album that is dropping on September 12th. While details about the music are scarce, the chosen date and dedication suggest the project will likely be another tribute to Mohbad, potentially featuring emotional lyrics and themes reflecting their friendship and loss.
Bella Shmurda had successfully sold out shows in Ibadan and London as well as released a new song with rapper, Vector titled If they are real. The artist has been a strong advocate against bullying and encouraged mental health awareness on a full scale. Fans of both artists are eagerly awaiting the release of these projects, which promise to be both a musical offering and a heartfelt homage to Mohbad.
