Omah Lay builds on the extended edition of his sophomore album with “TAKE,” a new collaboration featuring French singer and rapper Tiakola. The record sits on Clarity of Mind (Extended), which arrived on October 30, 2026. It pairs Nigerian Afrobeats with contemporary French urban music, and the contrast is the whole point of the arrangement.
Tiakola comes from French rap and singing, while Omah Lay carries the melodies and rhythm patterns Nigerian listeners already know. How those two halves sit together decides whether the song works. The vocal delivery is where that question gets answered.
Omah Lay is known for his distinctive vocals, his melodies, and songwriting that carries emotion without overdoing it. That restraint matters here because the record leans into the clash of textures instead of smoothing it over. He has built a strong presence in the Nigerian music industry and pulled in listeners from other parts of the world along the way.
