Nigerian Afrobeat sensation Bella Shmurda has stirred up buzz online with the release of the music video for his first single of the year, ‘Loner.’
The ‘Dagbana‘ hitmaker took to his Instagram page to share a teaser of the song, prompting fans to draw comparisons between the video and Wizkid’s ‘Essence.’
In ‘Loner,’ Bella Shmurda delves into his music and personal journey. Lyrics like “If I don’t tell you, how will you know?” suggest there’s more to him as an artist and individual than meets the eye.
Featuring additional vocals from Nigerian singer Lyta, “Loner” serves as Bella Shmurda’s lead single from his upcoming EP, titled ‘Road to September 12.’
Amidst an international tour that includes a nine-city stop in the UK, the 28-year-old artist is also set to release an LP later this year. His previous works include ‘High Tension,’ ‘High Tension 2.0,’ and ‘Hypertension.’
However, the music video sparked conversations online, with many noting similarities between Bella Shmurda’s visuals and those of Wizkid, suggesting inspiration drawn from the latter.
