London-based artist and multi-hyphenate creative Brian Nasty releases a new remix for his single "Loso Na Madesu" by the French producer Lewis OfMan along with an instrumental of the original track. Simultaneously, Brian will debut a new music video for the original directed by the director Harry Deadman.

“Loso Na Madesu” — which translates to “Rice and Beans” in Lingala — is a standout track from Brian's critically acclaimed ‘Growing Pains’ EP, an eclectic project that showcases his genre-defying approach to music. Featuring UK vocalist Natanya, the song is a modern twist on the classic call-and-response style, infused with the warm, infectious rhythms of Highlife music, a genre that dominated African airwaves in the 1970s and 80s.

Brian Nasty, who is as much at home in the world of fashion and film as he is in music, expressed his excitement about the upcoming remix, saying, "I really wanted to have a remix for this song as I thought the simple melody could translate in so many places, and it was about figuring who could do it justice. I'm so grateful I got Lewis on board as I've been a fan of his music for a while. It only makes sense because I speak French at home. I can’t wait to spend more time in France, and who better to do that with than Lewis OfMan!"

The ‘Growing Pains’ EP, from which the original track is taken, is a testament to Brian's unique production and storytelling skills, blending elements of Highlife, soul, blues, rock, indie, and electronic music into a cohesive narrative about life's complexities.
