Kunmie Drops Emotional Tribute to Brotherhood with New Single “My Brother”

By  | 

Nigerian singer Kunmie has released a new and instantly contagious single, “My Brother,” following his impactful debut four-track EP, Before We Became Strangers, released in March, and the recent remix of “Arike” featuring Simi and Mabel. This latest track is a deeply emotional tribute that celebrates the unbreakable bonds of loyalty, shared struggle, and genuine brotherhood.

“My Brother” positions itself as a heartfelt ode, where the simple yet profound chorus expresses gratitude and acknowledgement for trusted companionship. Kunmie’s smooth vocal delivery carries lyrics that paint vivid scenes of growing up, weathering personal storms, and celebrating shared, often quiet, victories. His verse captures the essence of a bond that requires no explanation, one built on mutual respect and time.

Adding distinctive layers to the song are its unique production elements. The track opens with a surprising yet contextual sampled voice note from President Tinubu, where he mentions his decision to avoid the negativity often found on social media. Further infusing the track with a recognizable flair, Kunmie incorporates a beloved sample from Brymo’s timeless 2012 hit, “Ara,” adding a vibrant, classic edge to the contemporary sound.

The track’s mesmerising production, handled collaboratively by Fade Venom, Drilly, and Shallythechampion, ensures that the emotional weight of the lyrics is perfectly matched by a dynamic, memorable soundscape. “My Brother” solidifies Kunmie’s reputation as an artist capable of creating music that is both commercially appealing and deeply resonant on a personal level.
