Nigerian twin brothers Iyamu Osazee Kelly and Iyamu Osarehnoma Nelly, collectively known as 2$tarz, have released their four-track EP, 2$tarz.wav, marking an important step in introducing their music and creative identity to a wider audience.
Released on Friday, November 6, 2026, the project brings together four records, “Whine 4 Me,” “nor go lie,” “Ecstasy,” and “4 a while,” with production contributions from Heze Chris Rhythm and Kivg Lee.
For Kelly and Nelly, making music together carries an interesting dimension. As twin brothers working under a shared artistic identity, their partnership extends beyond the usual arrangement between collaborators. Their relationship forms part of the story behind 2$tarz, giving the act a personal identity as they begin establishing themselves within Nigeria’s music landscape.
Their new EP provides an introduction to that partnership, bringing their recordings together under a title that places the group’s identity at the centre of the project.
The EP opens with “Whine 4 Me,” produced jointly by Kivg Lee and Heze Chris Rhythm, before moving into “nor go lie” and “Ecstasy.” It closes with “4 a while,” completing a compact collection of four recordings.
Heze Chris Rhythm’s involvement across the entire tracklist makes him an important contributor to the project. His production credits extend to all four songs, while Kivg Lee contributes to the opening record.
Beyond its tracklist, 2$tarz.wav represents an opportunity for the brothers to establish how they want to be heard and recognised as a musical act. For emerging artists, an introductory project is often as much about building familiarity as it is about releasing individual songs. It gives listeners a starting point from which to understand the artists and follow their subsequent releases.
The EP’s title draws from the WAV audio file format, placing the brothers’ stage name within a familiar music-production reference. It is a straightforward presentation that connects the project directly to the identity they are building.
With 2$tarz.wav, Kelly and Nelly have taken another step towards establishing 2$tarz as a recognisable name. How they develop their sound, strengthen their artistic identity and build on the release will become clearer with subsequent records.
For now, the four-track EP offers listeners an introduction to the twin brothers and their work together.
