Phyno releases his sixth studio album Let That Sink In on October 30, 2026 through Penthauze and MAD Solutions, and the full Phyno Let That Sink In tracklist is now public: 15 songs with Seyi Vibez, Wande Coal, Oxlade, Lojay, Fireboy DML, Chike and Jeriq. The album is his first since Full Time Job in 2024, and the rollout has been running since July.
Phyno, born Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike, is Nigerian rap’s great bridge builder, an Enugu-raised artist who raps in Igbo, English and Nigerian Pidgin and has carried indigenous-language rap to the centre of the country’s mainstream for over a decade. An album announcement from him is not a regional story. It is one of African hip hop’s anchor releases of the fall.
The Phyno Let That Sink In tracklist, in full
The 15-song running order reads like a map of modern Nigerian music. It opens with “Ndu Ka Aku” featuring Seyi Vibez and “Ndewo” featuring Wande Coal, moves through solo cuts “Beautiful,” “Next of Kin” and the freestyle “Na Afa Nna,” and stacks its collaborations through the middle: “Magret” with Oxlade, “Bom Bom” with Lojay, “I Believe” with Fireboy DML, “Kryptonite” with Chike and “Ije Enu” with Jeriq, before closing on “Ask of Me Now.” In between sit “Nwa Aturu,” “20 Years to Come,” “Chukwu Okike” and “Healing,” giving the album a spine of solo records between the features.
“Official artwork and tracklist!!! Let That Sink In Oct 30”
That was Phyno’s own announcement of the artwork and tracklist, and the guest list backs up the confidence. Fireboy DML came up through Olamide’s YBNL, which quietly ties this album to Phyno’s own history: his 2015 collaborative album 2 Kings was made with Olamide himself. A decade later, the new record hosts the next generation of that same family tree alongside street-pop leader Seyi Vibez and soul singer Chike.
A rollout built one single at a time
Unlike a surprise drop, Let That Sink In was assembled in public. Phyno released the freestyle “Na Afa Nna” in July, followed it in August with “Healing,” a reflective record about grief and the absence of a close friend, and issued the romantic single “Beautiful” on October 8, a song that moves between English and Igbo. All three appear on the album, which means listeners arriving on October 30 already know three corners of the record: the rap flex, the eulogy and the love song.
“Healing” may be the emotional centre. Its most quoted lines are a plainspoken dedication:
“I miss my brother / And I miss my friend.”
Placing a record like that on the same album as the Seyi Vibez and Wande Coal collaborations is a statement about range. Phyno has never treated street credibility and sentiment as opposites, and the tracklist suggests this album leans into both at once.
Six albums into a singular career
The new album extends a catalogue that began with No Guts, No Glory in 2014 and ran through The Playmaker in 2016, Deal with It in 2019, Something to Live For in 2021 and Full Time Job on October 4, 2024. That last album was itself a 15-track, guest-heavy record featuring Burna Boy, Flavour, Johnny Drille, Chip, ArrDee and NSG, so the format of Let That Sink In is a proven Phyno shape: a full-length statement built as a gathering.
What has changed is the centre of gravity. Where Full Time Job reached outward to UK and global guests, this tracklist stays almost entirely inside Nigeria’s current hit-making class, from Wande Coal’s veteran smoothness to Jeriq, the Igbo rapper carrying the sound’s next wave. It reads as a homecoming record made by an artist secure enough to host his own scene.
What to listen for on release day
Three questions will decide the album’s first week. First, whether “Kryptonite” with Chike, the pairing of Phyno’s rapid-fire flow with one of Nigeria’s most melodic hooks, becomes the breakout single. Second, whether the solo spine, “Next of Kin,” “Nwa Aturu” and “20 Years to Come,” carries the autobiographical weight the titles promise. Third, whether an Igbo-first rap album can convert its home momentum into the kind of global streaming run Afrobeats stars now treat as routine. The tracklist says the ingredients are all in place. October 30 supplies the answer.
