“Even though the country dun tire me / I dey catch cruise, Eko Miami” LadiPoe starts by juxtaposing his feelings toward the present state of Nigeria on “Running”, his second single of the year but first and lead single for his debut EP—”Providence”—set to drop next month, he and Fireboy peacefully let listeners into their mind state on this new song.

“There’s no time, there’s no energy / I’m just running, running, running / Sweet white wine cause there’s no Hennessy / I’m just running, running on vibes” Fireboy opens the song, stressing he isn’t paying any attention to bad energy and unprofitable dealings, rather choosing to focus on the bright light despite the dark spots around. LadiPoe would takeover with his rap verse, the opening lines are stated above, continuing he used clever punchlines and metaphors to express the amount he’s willing to pay for things to get better, a serene world that is.

Running is produced by Andrevibez (same as “Feeling”). It is an introspective perspective of the world LadiPoe and Fireboy DML find themselves in. Fireboy takes the chorus and has the luxury of a verse to his name, leading to LadiPoe’s second verse.

Listen to Running, the fourth track off of “Providence” set to drop on November 3:

Coming off the very impressive “Big Thug Boys” successful commercial and mainstream acceptance, blooming act, AV, releases his second single of the year. This one is titled “Confession” and true to its title, he expresses his feelings for the girl catching his eye. The song is produced by one of 2021’s hottest producers, Tempoe.

On Confession, AV goes straight to the point, heartfully singing about how much he is attracted to the girl’s physical appearance, her body, especially her big behind, “I must confess your body very offensive, e dey scatter my defense“, he says on one hand, “I must confess your ibadi na my objective, e dey give me problems” he says on the other; AV is not just a sweet talking youth, rather he is ready to proof his love for this endowed lady, even proposing an all-expense paid trip to an international location, not just once, but “for life“.

Overall, AV made sure not to drop the bar, instead he kept the ball rolling, providing this time around, a mid-tempo song over plush production, using minimal lyrics and repetition for emphasis. Listen to it yourself:
