Nigerian rapper Blaqbonez has officially unveiled a new release date for his long‑awaited album No Excuses, confirming it will arrive on Thursday, October 17, 2025. Initially slated for August 22, the project was delayed so the artist could fine‑tune his vision and deliver a product worthy of his standards.

In a video announcement shared on social media, Blaqbonez candidly admitted the truth behind the pushback:

“I didn’t finish it on time, that’s the truth. Since I want to put out the best album ever, I’ve refused to cut any corners.”

Even amid the wait, he has kept momentum alive with the rollout of singles like “Everlasting Taker”, “Louder”, “W for WETEGO” (featuring Young Jonn, Phyno, DJ 808), “Go Crazy,” and “Follow Her” (featuring Kizz Daniel). These tracks have built anticipation and given listeners a peek into the sonic direction of No Excuses.

This album follows earlier works such as Sex Over Love (2021), Young Preacher (2022), and Emeka Must Shine (2023), adding to Blaqbonez’s reputation as one of Nigeria’s most daring and inventive voices in hip-hop.

Known for his genre-bending style, satirical lyricism, and unapologetically confident persona, Blaqbonez has carved out a unique lane in the Nigerian music industry. With No Excuses, fans are expecting the artist to once again push creative boundaries.

The teasers suggest a blend of rap, Afrobeats, and experimental elements. With features from big names and diverse producers, the album may showcase his versatility. If No Excuses hits the mark, it could solidify his position as one of Africa’s top rappers, especially given the bold title itself.

With fans waiting patiently and buzz building steadily, the October 17 release has the potential to become a major moment in his career. Whether it exceeds expectations or not, one thing is clear: Blaqbonez is making no excuses for aiming high.
