Cool JB Ushers in a Powerful New Chapter with Afro-Fusion Anthem “Family Matter” Featuring Inspiraystonner

Emerging Nigerian artist Cool JB is set to captivate the music scene with the release of his much-anticipated new single, “Family Matter”, featuring fellow Nigerian sensation Inspiraystonner. Slated for release on September 21, 2025, the track not only introduces a vibrant musical collaboration but also marks Cool JB’s official debut under Lukhasstar Records, signaling the dawn of a bold and transformative era in his artistic journey.

A Sound Rooted in Afro-Fusion & Emotion

“Family Matter” is more than just a song—it’s a statement. The track showcases Cool JB’s unique Afro-fusion style, a rich mix of indigenous African rhythms and global sonic influences. With deeply emotive storytelling, the single explores themes of unity, resilience, loyalty, and the power of familial bonds—whether by blood or shared experiences.

Cool JB is joined by the soulful Inspiraystonner, whose warm vocals and empowering energy perfectly complement the track’s essence. Together, they weave a soundscape that’s both uplifting and introspective—highlighting the need for togetherness in a world increasingly marked by division.

A Prelude to “UNIVERSE”: The Album

“Family Matter” serves as the first taste of Cool JB’s upcoming debut studio album, titled UNIVERSE, set to drop later this September. The album promises to be a genre-blending journey, touching on personal growth, cultural identity, and global connectivity. With tracks that blend Afrobeat, pop, soul, and alternative influences, UNIVERSE will further cement Cool JB’s place as not just a performer, but a storyteller and sound architect.

A Life Built on Passion, Purpose & Persistence

Born Joshua Hussain, Cool JB’s musical roots trace back to his upbringing in Lagos, with ancestral ties to Kogi State. His early exposure to the works of Nigerian legends like Zule Zoo and Tony Tetuila, alongside global icons such as James Blunt, Dido, Vanessa Carlton, and Westlife, shaped his distinctive sound and songwriting.

His musical journey began long before the spotlight—penning lyrics by age 12, guided by the encouragement of his mother, who believed deeply in his gift. He went on to study music at Obafemi Awolowo University, where he refined his craft, honed his engineering skills, and began producing for rising artists in independent studios. Over time, he carved out his identity not just as a vocalist, but as a versatile producer and mix engineer, dedicated to authenticity in every note.

Cool JB’s earlier work, including his debut single “Jofunmi” (recorded in 2010) and early group collaborations with Windstars, laid the foundation for his current artistic maturity. Now, with “Family Matter,” he steps fully into his power—merging heartfelt narratives with polished production and cultural soul.

Featuring: Inspiraystonner—A Voice That Heals

Joining Cool JB on this powerful release is Inspiraystonner, one of Nigeria’s most exciting emerging voices. Hailing from Ogun State, he has built a reputation for delivering music that’s emotionally resonant, spiritually charged, and socially relevant. With a vocal delivery that blends soul and sincerity, Inspiraystonner brings a raw honesty to every verse—making him the ideal collaborator for a track as grounded and profound as “Family Matter.”

Setting the Stage for Global Recognition

With this release, Cool JB signals that he’s not just another rising artist—he’s a force ready to represent Afro-fusion on the global stage. Backed by Lukhasstar Records, and supported by a growing fanbase that resonates with his authenticity, “Family Matter” is poised to connect with listeners across cultures and continents.

As anticipation builds for UNIVERSE, “Family Matter” is both a celebration of how far Cool JB has come—and a glimpse of the groundbreaking artistry that lies ahead.
