'Zone 6, Agege' refers to a little coastal suburb in Accra the capital of Ghana, where the now Sheffield-based KOG "grew up and the vibe, culture and social structures enhanced and developed my creativity and love for art," adding that the album is his "ode or a tribute to my nature, nurture and future" - is his first solo release for Heavenly Sweetness.

It was recorded in November, 2020 at Yellow Arch studios (Sheffield) by David Haynes and produced by British producer/musician Tom Excell joining forces with long-time Heavenly Sweetness affiliate producer/DJ Guts.

Two years ago, K.O.G. released 'Wahala, Wahala' (the album title, Swahili for trouble, or problem, also on Heavenly Sweetness) with The Zongo Brigade. 'Zone 6 Agege' is a dramatic development: as much homage to the Accra-born artist's musical roots, as an expansive engagement with music of the Black Atlantic, most notably hip-hop and dub/reggae.

Singer/showman/songwriter K.O.G. has, since moving to the UK in 2008 developed an extraordinary following in Britain and worldwide for his high voltage performances with The Zongo Brigade. As well as part of Damon Albarn's Africa Express 2019 showcase.

He has performed in over 15 countries; from Glastonbury's West Holts stage to Fusion (Germany), Sauti Za Busara (Zanzibar), Kabardock (Reunion) and the Commonwealth Games (Gold Cost, Australia), winning the 2018 Young Commonwealth Performer award. Last November, K.O.G featured in Tony Allen: A Retrospective at the London Southbank Centre, in a line-up curated by Damon Albarn, Ben Okri, Femi Koleoso and Remi Kabaka, alongside Nitin Sawney, Jimi Tenor, Seye Adelekan, among others. His music has featured on BBC2 with Jools Holland and included on a FIFA 2020 EA Sport game.
