In a climate where the everyday struggles of the average citizen often go unnoticed, a deeply moving and socially conscious new record titled “Since 1996” has been released to serve as a mirror, a balm, and a rallying cry for the nation.
“Since 1996” is not just a musical release; it is a profound tribute to the millions of Nigerians whose quiet resilience is rarely celebrated in mainstream spaces. The track speaks directly to the heart of the nation, honoring every mother who has fiercely protected her children, every family that has weathered seemingly impossible moments, and every young person searching for a glimmer of hope in a challenging world.
At its core, the record is a conscious call for courage, wisdom, unity, and accountability. It firmly steers away from division, choosing instead to remind listeners of the sanctity of human life. The song carries a heavy but necessary message: that violence leaves permanent scars on the collective consciousness, and that no Nigerian should have to live in a state of fear due to political shifts, ethnic lines, religious differences, or conflict.
The production provides a solemn yet uplifting backdrop, allowing the weight of the lyrics to fully resonate. By treating differences not as weapons, but as a potential source of collective strength, “Since 1996” stands out as a timely reminder of what is possible when a people stand together.
“Since 1996 is my story, but it is also the story of millions of Nigerians whose resilience is rarely celebrated. Pain inspired this song. Survival gave it life. Hope is the reason I released it.”
With its raw honesty and patriotic undertone, “Since 1996” invites listeners to use their voices, protect one another, and keep believing in a brighter future for Nigeria.
“Since 1996” is available now on all major digital music streaming platforms.
