In an Afropop scene constantly pushing sonic boundaries, Mykel Coker returns with “Echelon XIV”,  a bold, rhythm-driven single that redefines street music through the lens of melody, charisma, and fun. Known for blending crisp songwriting with lighthearted storytelling, Mykel delivers one of his most confident performances yet, crafting an anthem that sits effortlessly between Afropop, street-hop, and dance-floor euphoria.

Over the past year, Mykel has steadily built momentum with collaborative drops and an expanding online presence. “Echelon XIV” feels like the culmination of that rise, a moment that captures his fascination with nightlife, youthful chaos, and self-assured energy.

The record opens with Mykel’s signature wit, his vocals gliding over percussive log drums and infectious backup chants that nod to classic Afrobeat cadences. Lines like “I see something for your body, shey you dey worry?” and the playful confession that her curves “give him headache” embody his blend of humor, confidence, and charm. The chant-like refrain, built around call-and-response vocals, cements its status as a dance-floor-ready anthem with viral potential.

Built on sweet, bouncy rhythms and hypnotic melodies, “Echelon XIV” is both carefree and deliberate,  the sound of an artiste fully stepping into his zone. Mykel’s delivery radiates swagger without arrogance, transforming the record into a celebration of vibe, self-expression, and control.

At its heart, “Echelon XIV” reflects the pulse of Nigeria’s next wave, a generation of pop creatives unafraid to experiment, flirt, and flex, yet grounded in rhythm and soul. It’s proof that in the ever-evolving world of Afropop, confidence doesn’t need to be loud; sometimes, all it takes is a groove, a grin, and the right attitude.
