Joeboy Unveils Third Studio Album �Viva Lavida� Under Young Legend Imprint
Nigerian Afropop star Joeboy has dropped his much-anticipated third studio album, *Viva Lavida*, a thirteen-track masterpiece released through his newly established Young Legend imprint in partnership with Warner Music Africa. The album, whose title translates to �Live Life,� marks a defining moment in Joeboy�s career, showcasing his growth as an artist through mature storytelling, refined artistry, and a deep dive into the complexities of human experience.
*Viva Lavida* explores a broad spectrum of themes, from the highs and lows of love and heartbreak to the power of resilience and self-empowerment. Each track serves as a chapter in Joeboy�s evolving narrative, inviting listeners to reflect on life�s intricacies alongside him. The album features a stellar lineup of guest artists, including Nigerian rap heavyweight Olamide, rising stars Wizard Chan and Qing Madi, producer-artist Tempoe, and Brazilian singer Elana Dara, whose contributions add rich layers of sonic diversity to the project.
Executive produced by Tempoe, *Viva Lavida* builds on the momentum of Joeboy�s previously released singles �Taxi Driver,� �SMH,� �Osadebe,� and �Adenuga,� which offered fans a taste of the album�s direction. The project represents a clear evolution from Joeboy�s earlier works, *Somewhere Between Beauty & Magic* (2021) and *Body & Soul* (2023), both of which earned critical acclaim and solidified his place as one of Afropop�s leading voices.
Ahead of the release, Joeboy took to X to share his vision for the album, writing, �The Viva Lavida album is purely about unique music. No gimmicks, no agenda, no controversy, No diss. Just BEAUTIFUL music.� True to his word, *Viva Lavida* delivers a cohesive and heartfelt body of work that prioritizes artistry over trends, further cementing Joeboy�s reputation for creating timeless music.
The release of *Viva Lavida* also marks a significant milestone for Joeboy as his first album under Young Legend, the imprint he launched following his exit from Mr. Eazi�s Banku Music label late last year. This new chapter highlights Joeboy�s growing independence and entrepreneurial spirit, as he takes greater control of his creative and professional journey while continuing to push the boundaries of Afropop.
With *Viva Lavida*, Joeboy not only reaffirms his status as a trailblazer in the Nigerian music scene but also sets the stage for an exciting new era in his career. The album is now available on all major streaming platforms, and fans are already buzzing about its impact.
