Fresh off Junos Win, TOBi Releases Newest Track

Coming off his massive JUNOS win this month for Rap Album / EP of the year, Nigerian-born and Toronto-based artist TOBi releases his newest track

“Keep from Falling.”

Listen here.

Produced by Alex Goose and co-written with Jake Troth, the track continues TOBi’s trajectory of creating immaculate soul music, blending elements across genres, innovative instrumentation, and emotionally resonant lyrics.

Recently, TOBi released his Alex Goose-produced single and video “Before We Panic” featuring Mikky Ekko(written for Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Drake), and his single “Flowers,” both a prelude to his forthcoming album.

Nigerian-born, Toronto-based recording artist TOBi is the winner of the 2023 JUNO Award for “Rap Album / EP of the Year” and the 2021 JUNO Award for “Best Rap Recording of the Year.”

Voted by Complex Magazine as “a top artist to watch” TOBi has received critical praise from Interview Magazine, Pitchfork, Vogue, Teen Vogue, L’Officiel, Paper, Billboard, Rolling Stone, Clash, OkayAfrica, Flaunt, Exclaim!, Refinery29, Essential Homme, COLORS, and many more.

In 2020, TOBi signed with Same Plate Entertainment/RCA Records and in 2021 his single “Whoa” with fellow Torontonian rapper Jazz Cartier was released to critical praise. “Whoa” follows a slew of tracks released over the summer including “Off The Drugs” with Mick Jenkins, “Come As You Are” featuring Baby Rose and “Don’t Touch!,” which was praised by Complex for its “smooth production…elevating [TOBi’s] empowered musings on the hairy side of the Black experience to new heights.” TOBi, who was nominated for the 2022 JUNO Awards, has continually released music including his Shall I Continue? bundle, Too Hot (Maxi Single) bundle and single “That’s Alright” this past year.

Stay tuned for more to come from TOBi.
