Nigerian producer Sarz, one of the most influential figures shaping the sound of Afrobeats, has announced a new visual project titled Protect Sarz At All Costs: Lay of the Land. Billed as a five-part docu-series, the trailer teases a deeper dive into the world of the hitmaker who has crafted records for some of the biggest artists in Africa and beyond.

This project arrives as part of a larger creative rollout surrounding Sarz’s debut album, Protect Sarz At All Costs. The record, unveiled earlier this year, signaled a major moment in his career not only positioning him as a behind-the-boards architect of sound but also as a front-facing artist building a body of work with conceptual weight.

According to coverage by Culture Custodian, the album was described as “groundbreaking,” highlighting its ambition and forward-thinking production.

Meanwhile, The NATIVE has already offered first impressions of the album, noting that its release was paired with a visually striking and theatrical campaign. This layered approach seems to be extending into the documentary format, with Lay of the Land promising to expand the world Sarz has built around his music.

So far, details on the docu-series remain sparse. The official trailer has been teased, but there is no confirmed release date, streaming platform, or information on the creative team behind it. What is clear is that Lay of the Land will serve as an extension of Sarz’s artistic narrative a chance to go beyond the studio magic and offer audiences a more immersive experience of his process, influences, and vision.

Whether the documentary leans toward behind-the-scenes storytelling, a chronicle of his rise, or a conceptual exploration tied directly to the album remains to be seen. But with Sarz’s track record for innovation, anticipation is running high.

Protect Sarz At All Costs: Lay of the Land is “coming soon.” For now, fans will have to wait for more details, but the groundwork suggests a project that could redefine how Nigerian producers tell their stories to the world.
