Empire has released a 9-track album titled 'HOUSE of EMPIRE', which contains remixes of some of the biggest afrobeats songs by DJs from different parts of the world from artists under the independent distributor.
EMPIRE, a leading independent label, distributor, and publisher, delivers a 9-track album, HOUSE
of EMPIRE, out today. The compilation features dance remixes of top hits by EMPIRE Africa artists, including Fireboy DML, Black Sherif, June Freedom, L.A.X., Clemzy, Asake, and

With HOUSE of EMPIRE, the label aims to bridge two diverse regional cultures to a global
scale. The album has sonic elements, including Amapiano, Phonk, and other subgenres of
House. HOUSE of EMPIRE is a groundbreaking moment in global music culture and represents
collaboration across cultures and genres.
EMPIRE has been the No.1 record label in Nigeria, Africa, for two years in a row. We’ve achieved
record-breaking success with Fireboy DML’s hit single “Peru” with Ed Sheeran, which was the #2
on the Top 40 UK charts for 2022 and this year earned a RIAA-Gold certification.

2022’s Where We Come From (Vol. 1) compilation album that birthed Kizz Daniel’s “Cough”.
