He has steadily carved a place for himself in the Afro-fusion scene, and his latest release, "Reason," marks a significant step forward, solidifying his position as a voice for his generation.
"Reason" is an emotionally resonant Afro-fusion track that speaks to the everyday challenges faced by young Nigerians. Laime doesn't shy away from hard truths, using his introspective lyrics to address issues like economic hardship, the pressure to migrate ("japa"), and the struggle for survival within a system that often feels stacked against them. He masterfully blends personal storytelling with social commentary.
The song paints a stark contrast between a more hopeful past and the harsh realities of the present. Lines like “Once upon a time it was nice and sweet” juxtapose sharply with the current struggles of inflation, joblessness, and political disappointments.
The raw emotion in the hook, “E don hard, E don burst”, encapsulates the feeling of being overwhelmed, while the defiant refrain “But we gats hustle” reinforces the spirit of perseverance.
"Reason" vividly portrays the everyday experiences of young Nigerians navigating difficult streets, confronting systemic failures, and doing whatever it takes to survive.
