Kemuel has shared his brand new single ‘Alone’.
The Nigerian singer, songwriter and producer has hit the ground running once more, piecing together a vulnerable listener filled with melody and movement. Leading the way with his own production, the track seamlessly navigates between R&B, pop and afrobeats. It’s a stark moment that sees Kemuel revisit a past romance, working through the obstacles of long distance and perseverance.
‘Alone’ offers a window into the riser’s upcoming sophomore project, bouncing straight back from his triumphant debu.. First starting his musical journey aged 13, Kemuel has developed a diverse approach to his craft, learning to play the piano, bass guitar, and drums. Since then, the artist has worked alongside some of the most exciting global talent to break through, from Olamide to DJ Spinall.
‘Alone’ is a bold step into Kemuel’s next chapter, uplifting his voice further and beyond.
Speaking on the track, the artist details: “It was a Thursday when ‘Alone’ took shape, I remember because it felt like the weekend, but it wasn’t. Having crafted the beat earlier that day, I kept listening to it until the lyrics came pouring out. I’ll be honest with you about the inspiration – before music started happening for me, there was a girl in my life, but relocating to Lagos to pursue music was detrimental to our relationship. I realise now that I was somewhat blind to the strain that caused. We had gone through countless fights because of the distance between us, so this song is basically all the things I would’ve said to her to provide some level of assurance, but I never did, and in the end, we broke up”.
Tune in now.
