Album of the Month – March 2024

Master Peace, also known as Peace Okezie, is a rising star in the indie pop scene, bringing a fresh and unique perspective to the genre. As a multi-faceted musician, Master Peace has blended his love for indie music with his background in grime crews, creating a sound that defies stereotypes and expectations. He cites indie legends like Lightspeed Champion and Kele from Bloc Party as inspirations, while also channeling the raucous energy of 2000s indie sleaze into his infectious beats.

Master Peace’s new album, How To Make A Master Peace, is a pastiche of the alternative music he was raised on, incorporating elements of punk, electroclash, and tongue-in-cheek lyricism. But it’s not just his sound that sets Master Peace apart. He also brings a rowdy and unique energy to his live performances, commanding the stage and rivaling even the most established indie giants.

For fans of Franz Ferdinand, Bloc Party, Lightspeed Champion, and Bakar, Master Peace is definitely an artist to watch. His contributions to the indie pop scene are boundless, and his music is sure to invigorate and inspire. Don’t miss out on this exciting new voice in music.
