Flavour started recording the album after releasing his debut studio album, N'abania (2005). He produced three songs on the album; "Oyi (I Dey Catch Cold)", "Chinedum", and the techno-infused track "Kjumanjo". Uplifted explores the genres of highlife, hip hop, reggae, dancehall, calypso and R&B. The album was recorded in Igbo, English and Nigerian pidgin.[3] While recording Uplifted, Flavour believed it would break national and cultural barriers that often diminish the value of music in Africa. The album was well received in Nigeria, South Africa and Botswana.[4]
"Nwa Baby (Ashawo Remix)" was released on June 22, 2011, as the album's lead single. The song was written by Flavour and is a remake of Cardinal Rex's 1960 hit "Sawale".[5] "Oyi (I Dey Catch Cold)" was released as the album's second single. The dance track "Adamma" was released as the album's third single. There were two music videos released for "Adamma". The second video was shot in South Africa by Godfather Productions and uploaded to YouTube on October 6, 2011.
In a review for ModernGhana, Onyinye Muomah said the artists featured on the album were subpar, but positively acknowledged Flavour for "incorporating new genres to his original kind of music".[1]
