JE The #1 Baller starts 2026 off strong with "BAG," a collaborative single with MERSEA that shows both artists' growth and their growing creative bond. The track sounds like months of working together in the studio, trying new things, and trusting each other, which gives it a sound that feels lived-in and confident.
"BAG" is based on hip hop but has rhythms that are influenced by African music. The production strikes a balance between groove and space, letting rhythm drive the experience while also giving each artist room to show off their style. There is a smooth adaptability at work here, which shows how JE The #1 Baller keeps changing his sound without losing his core energy.
JE The #1 Baller and MERSEA chemistry are what really stand out, their move is easy because they work together all the time. That familiarity makes the track feel focused instead of forced. Their willingness to break out of usual patterns gives "BAG" a sense of progress, as if it is a new chapter instead of just a one-time release.
"BAG" works because it doesn't blindly follow trends or hold on to comfort. Instead, it mixes modern sounds into a single sound that shows where Nigerian music is now and where it is going. As a release at the beginning of the year, it sets a strong tone, making JE The #1 Baller seem like an artist who wants to grow, work with others, and move forward.
