Nigerian singer-songwriter Jlyricz returns with a Valentine special “Nkem” and his gift to lovers in this Valentine’s season is a beautiful piece of art.
Nkem which means “my own” in Igbo is a song about love and dedication. The groovy romance tune which sees the gifted crooner assure his lover of his commitment to her wellbeing and happiness is a listener’s delight while urging her to shun other admirers.
Jlyricz says “every woman wants to be loved and this comes with the assurance of her being her man’s number one priority, his unwavering faithfulness and protection. Every woman craves and needs security. Nkem is just me telling and assuring my woman that she has no need to worry so if any distraction comes in the form of other men, she should simply tell them she belongs to me.”
The beautiful tune is written and composed by Jlyricz while long term collaborator E-Mex helms production.
