Rising Nigerian artist BEEJAY has dropped his vibrant new single “Baby Mi”, an infectious Afrobeat love song that captures the playful push-and-pull of modern romance. Released through CiDAR Africa, the track showcases the singer-songwriter’s ability to blend relatable storytelling with irresistible rhythms, solidifying his position as one of Afrobeats’ most promising new voices.
Produced by hitmaker Niphkeys, “Baby Mi” paints a vivid picture of a smitten young man navigating a relationship with an independent woman. The song’s smooth groove and catchy melodies perfectly encapsulate the thrill of pursuit and the complexities of contemporary dating.
“This track is for anyone who’s ever been caught between desire and uncertainty in love,” says BEEJAY (born Samuel Olaniyi), whose breakout hit “Chokomilo” first put him on the music radar. Drawing inspiration from Nigerian legends like Fela Kuti and King Sunny Ade, the artist brings both traditional influences and fresh energy to the thriving Afrobeats scene.
With its universal themes and danceable beat, “Baby Mi” is poised to become the soundtrack to countless romantic moments. The release marks another step in BEEJAY’s ascent as he continues to carve out his unique space in Africa’s most influential music movement.
