Adenuga (Review)

Lyrics

Nigerian artist Joeboy is back with a captivating Afrobeats love song, Adenuga and it is straight up flames. Adenuga sets the tone for the romantic narrative with some lush strings but it's the beat drop that truly elevates the experience, injecting an irresistible groove into the mix. With the lyrics, Joeboy creatively uses wordplay with the name Adenuga – a reference to one of Nigeria's billionaires – as a metaphor for his desire to shower his partner with lavish affection and wealth. Through his wordplay, he conveys an understanding of his partner's "love language" being rooted in material gestures, promising to give her the world because of the profound connection they share. Qing Madi's featured vocals add an extra layer of depth to the track, offering a female perspective on the relationship. Her smooth and silky tones complement Joeboy's delivery perfectly, creating a harmonious blend. The visuals for Adenuga are just as engaging as the audio, with the music video employing a Bonnie and Clyde-esque theme. Joeboy finds himself on the run from authorities, but his partner remains steadfastly by his side, helping him evade capture. This cinematic approach reinforces the song's central message of an unbreakable bond, where the couple faces the world together, no matter the obstacles. Adenuga is definitely a bop that you should check it out and while at it visit www.mdundo.com for more reviews.
