Nigerian music industry outstanding stage performer, Lojay, is back again with a new interesting song titled “Tenner.”
Tenner trades the playful flirtation of his last drop “Mwah!” (with Odeal) for midnight introspection. Over a sparse, glimmering beat—built on muted log drums, glassy synth pads, and a bassline that glides like city lights on wet asphalt—Lojay paces through memories of near misses, clipped friendships, and the tiny victories that cost more than a ten‑naira note ever could. His voice, equal parts velvet and gravel, sits front‑row in the mix, stacking airy ad‑libs that echo like questions you answer only in your head.
Production remains minimalist yet immersive; each rimshot lands in roomy silence, letting the melancholy breathe without dragging the tempo. Lyrically, he pins snapshots on the board—rain‑splattered taxis, unread texts at 2 a.m., the bittersweet relief of finally letting go. The hook is concise and sticky; you hum it once, and it lingers like perfume on a jacket.
If “Mwah!” sound‑tracked the spark, “Tenner” scores the reflective walk home afterward. Dim your lights, press play, and let the mood unfold.
This new song from Nigerian finest Lojay called “Tenner” is a masterpiece that deserves a spot on every music lover’s playlist.
