Some of his songs have sailed directly into the welcoming arms of music fans, notably \u2018The good life\u2019, which is basically a party song.<\/p>\n
He explains why he has decided to release one song ahead of the launch.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want people to have a feel of the music, get familiar with it and to get them ready for the massive album launch that is on offer.<\/p>\n

Purple C said he is excited that the project has been completed: \u201cWe have been working on this album since last year, and I am excited that we are finally releasing this album\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would like to thank my manager Successor and team for the trust they have in my talent. I also would like to thank my producers for their effort,\u201d Purple C said.<\/p>\n
Extra ordinary is Purple C\u2019s first album after breaking into the music scene in 2015 and scooping the award of Best New Comer [2016-2017] in Nyasa Music Awards.<\/p>\n
The album has songs such as \u2018Turn me over\u2019, \u2018Malawi\u2019 and \u2018Take time\u2019 featuring Theo Thomson.<\/p>\n
The artist said the album would be spiced with videos that have just been worked on.<\/p>\n
\u201cVery soon, we will announce dates of releasing the videos we have worked on. People should know that we selected songs from the album to satisfy people that love my music,\u201d Purple C said.<\/p>\n
