A visual teaser for the project, which featured the singer being beaten by two men, was posted last month on Instagram, showing the artist’s sober reflection amid scars on his body.
John Drille entered the music scene in 2013 when he competed on Project Fame West Africa’s sixth season.
He came through with a cover of ‘Awww’ by Dija, a Nigerian artist who later became his label mate. Don Jazzy, CEO of Mavin Records, was drawn to the artist’s original sound, convincing him to sign with the label in 2017.
Since then, he has released a number of singles, which have turned out to be a major success with huge recognition. In 2019, he won ‘Best Alternative Song’ at the 2019 edition of The Headies.
