Rising Nigerian R&B artist Rukmani is set to captivate listeners worldwide with the release of 3XL Deluxe on October 3rd, 2025. This reimagined and expanded edition of her critically acclaimed debut album further solidifies her exploration of the raw, unfiltered emotions that define the modern human experience.
Known for her distinct, piercing vocals infused with Afrobeats undertones, Rukmani has cultivated a sound that is both deeply poetic and emotionally resonant.
An Expanded Story of Love, Lust, and Loss
With 3XL Deluxe, Rukmani revisits the core themes of love, lust, and loss, expanding the original story with powerful new tracks that breathe fresh life into the project. The deluxe edition elevates the project into a fuller body of work, expertly balancing vulnerability with sensuality and depth with groove.
The new edition features a stellar lineup of collaborations, including the fan-favorite “Not Nice” ft. SGwad, “Fantasy” featuring Kaestyle, and “Heartbeat” featuring Alpha P.
Across the entire project, Rukmani invites listeners into her unique soundscape: a world where smooth R&B melodies intertwine seamlessly with Afrobeats rhythms. Her lyrics capture the highs of passion, the warmth of intimacy, and the quiet devastation of heartbreak, resulting in a work that feels both intensely personal and universally relatable.
Fan Activations and Global Ambitions
Cementing her status as an artist to watch on the global stage, 3XL Deluxe will be accompanied by exclusive behind-the-scenes content, offering fans an even closer look into her creative process. Beyond the music, Rukmani is also curating intimate fan activations, including “Lost Love Letters” events and secret shows scheduled in Lagos and the diaspora.
