Singer, producer, and Afro-R&B pioneer Maleek Berry unveils his long-anticipated debut album, ‘If Only Love Was Enough’, a sonic journey that resonates with a global audience, whilst seamlessly blending Afrobeats, R&B, and Reggae.

‘If Only Love Was Enough’ features an all-star lineup including Wizkid, Tiwa Savage, Ruger, and Zlatan, the project is largely self-produced, with additional contributions from acclaimed duo Legendury Beatz (best known for Wizkid’s global hit “Essence”), who lend their touch to four tracks.

From the raw vulnerability of ‘The Pain’ to the sultry, late-night groove of ‘My Body,’ featuring Afrobeats queen Tiwa Savage, the R&B influence pulses throughout, mirroring the emotional depth of the project. The album traverses a wide emotional landscape while staying intimate and cohesive. Maleek effortlessly shifts between moods and tempos, delivering the seductive pull of ‘Mirror’ and the high-energy euphoria of dance floor anthems like ‘Lagos Party’, ‘Who Be This One’ and ‘Onyeoma.’

Speaking on the album he said: “It’s finally here guys. It’s been a journey of Blood, sweat and tears putting this album together. I put my all into writing these songs and I am excited to finally share a piece of my life with you again.”

A key architect of the Afrobeats sound, Maleek Berry has bridged the gap between underground movements and global recognition. As an independent artist, Maleek Berry recently announced a strategic partnership between his label, Berry’s Room, and FUGA. This collaboration will support the worldwide distribution and marketing of his catalog and future releases.

Widely respected as a role model for the next generation of artists, Maleek is passionate about nurturing emerging Afrobeats talent. His vision extends far beyond music, as he empowers young creatives through ownership and building a lasting legacy that transcends generations.
