FRESH OUT: BARUQ - MATERIAL GURL

 

Alternative Pop/Rock artist BARUQ returns with his brand new single titled “Material Gurl”. Following from the success of his last single “Misconception” which received massive airplay and support from Beat FM, Cool FM (Abuja), Kiss FM, Rhythm FM (Jos) and Wazobia FM among others, BaruQ comes alive yet again on this new offering - the Dr. Tim-produced “Material Gurl” - which is off of his forthcoming debut album which is to be released in 2013.

Backed by gritty Rock-infused electric and bass guitar arrangements as well as stirring drum patterns, BaruQ tells a cautionary tale of a girl who loses her way to a material world by creatively painting a vivid and harrowing image of trafficking and illegal sex trade in Nigeria with his carefully crafted lyrics, ingenious wordplay and a compelling vocal performance to match. Listen to “Material Gurl” below:
