Burna Boy has ignited anticipation for his forthcoming album, “No Sign of Weakness,” with the release of his captivating new single, “Update.” The Nigerian superstar delivers a groovy and compelling track that showcases his signature blend of Afrobeats, pop, and a touch of nostalgic flair.
“Update,” produced by P2J, is a vivid sonic experience that draws inspiration from the iconic 1989 hit “Back To Life (However Do You Want It)” by British R&B band Soul II Soul. Burna Boy masterfully weaves this classic sample into a contemporary Afrobeats soundscape, creating a track that feels both familiar and refreshingly new.
The song’s opening line, “On a normal day, dem no fit touch my energy,” immediately establishes Burna Boy’s confident and unwavering presence. The track pulsates with the same energetic drive that characterized his “African Giant” era, while also revealing a more measured and refined approach.
