Tune Walker, born Mustapha Adeniyi Hakeem, steps into the growing conversation around instrumentation in African music with “Hakeem.”
The instrumental release pairs Afrobeats and Amapiano through live performance, reminding listeners of the power of rhythm, melody, and texture.
“Tornado” opens with layered percussion, driving energy, and a sweeping electric guitar that builds momentum like its name suggests, while “Hurricane” shifts into a warmer, soulful space led by shekere bounce and a smooth saxophone hook.
With no vocals or features, the sound does all the work. Across both tracks, Tune Walker’s multi-instrumental range—drums, sax, keys, and bass—creates immersive soundscapes built for movement, DJ sets, and cinematic moments.
