Five Inspirational Afropop Songs To Kickstart Your Week With.

As it’s become tradition to share positive affirmations and motivational quotes every Monday, I thought to plug you with afropop singles that will inspire you;

1) Free mind by Tems

Aside from Tems refreshing tone and angelic vocals, the lyrical content on Free My Mind is introspective and deep tackling relatable topics like mental health and anxiety.

The song is liberating in its sincerity permitting one to acknowledge similar struggles and giving one the confidence to overcome them.

Free my mind has been a sleeper hit across the globe landing Tems an entry in the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

2) Dimension by Rema

On this mellow and contemplative offering, Rema glides over JAE5’s emotive, Afrobeats-laden production delivering deeply affective and soothing vocals.

Rema sings about grinding to feed his family while remembering his brothers who are serving time yearning for freedom.

For Skepta’s verse, we see the skilled rapper at his most thoughtful as he waxes on the ills plaguing today’s society, despairing at the gang violence and looking for a way out of it all.

3) Midnight Train by Sauti Sol

The title track to Sauti Sol’s magnum opus, Midnight Train, is an anthemic and uplifting single that is a perfect embodiment of the album’s theme of hope.

On this song, the band reflect on the relentless effort they have put into their careers and the success they have achieved from it, while also recognising that there is still more to come as their collective journey continues.

4) Adulthood Anthem

Adulthood Anthem might be the soundtrack of our lives as we all craved the freedom of being adults but weren’t prepared with the responsibilities it came with.

This bop is both humorous and brooding all at once, with the lyrics poking fun at adulthood being a scam while tackling the challenges and pains of growing up.

On the coldest Mondays just press play Adulthood Anthem and find solace in the relatability of the song’s message

5) Uyo Meyo by Teni

Uyo Meyo which is by far Teni’s best song to date is a heart warming ballad that details her struggles and pain endured before fame while urging fans to be relentless in chasing their dreams.

Teni delivers an exceptional vocal performance that enkindles emotions of hope and reassurance.

Noteable lyrics include; Don’t you worry about a thing nah, ‘cos if you work hard you can get it if you want’ if you strive hard you can be just what you want'
