VLAD LA Collaborates With Lola Adams On R&B-Afrobeats Single ‘No Time’

Acclaimed UK-based Nigerian producer VLAD LA has teamed up with rising singer Lola Adams for her first single of the year, an infectious R&B-Afrobeats fusion titled No Time. Released on February 20, 2024, the track marks a significant step in Adams’ musical journey, blending her soulful vocals with VLAD LA’s refined production, which continues to push the boundaries of genre fusion.

Known for his expertise in combining African rhythms with modern R&B soundscapes, VLAD LA (born Latunde Oluwaferanmi Paul) delivers a polished production that perfectly complements Adams’ vocal delivery. The track is a delicate balance of smooth, emotive R&B melodies and the vibrant pulse of Afrobeats, creating a contemporary sound rooted in African musical traditions.

No Time explores themes of independence and self-assurance, with Adams singing about prioritising self-growth and refusing to settle for anything less. Her sultry yet assertive vocals glide effortlessly over VLAD LA’s meticulous production, which features a steady beat, layered percussion, and subtle synths that highlight both the intimacy of R&B and the dynamic rhythm of Afrobeats.
