Jinmi Abduls Captures The Sweetness Of Intimacy With A Tender New Release, ‘Hold You’

 

Afro-Pop’s Jinmi Abduls returns with his second single of the summer, ‘Hold You’. This love

song opens with the kind of warmth that pulls you in immediately. Sweet rhythm drums, soft

guitar riffs and his calm, affectionate vocals come together to create a record that feels

tender, familiar and deeply romantic.

‘Hold You’ is a sweet serenade touching on closeness, comfort and the emotions that aren’t

always easy to articulate. Blending classic Afrobeats and R&B, the track finds Jinmi Abduls

leaning into the softer side of love. He captures the desire to be present and offers comfort

through every season. 

Co-produced by the talented Kuspid (Odumodublvck/Scottyolorin), and Jinmi Abduls, ‘Hold You’ carries the ease of a timeless love song. Its gentle drums and soft rhythm create a

smooth groove for Jinmi’s vocals to sit in. The track nods to classics like Teddy Pendergrass’

‘When Somebody Loves You Back’ and 2Face Idibia’s ‘Ole’. This draws on the nostalgic world

of devotion while still feeling fresh and distinctly his own.

Speaking about the release, Jinmi shares, “Making music for me is about expressing the

many emotions we feel, some of which don’t even have words to describe them. I wrote this

song to feel like a warm embrace on a stormy night. Nothing feels better”.

Now signed to Believe Music in Paris, Jinmi Abduls continues to step into a new era with

intention and clarity. Following the release of ‘Sade’ in May 2026, ‘Hold You’ solidifies a new

chapter. It offers a glimpse into the emotional world the star is building - setting the tone for

more to come.

Young Rob is in his element on new love anthem ‘My Girl’

 

 

There's a reason why Young Rob remains one of Afrobeats’ most captivating

voices, he’s the “gyal dem sugar,” and ‘My Girl’ captures that magic. Here, the crooner

keeps it suave, putting his girl on a pedestal while letting his romantic side shine through every lyric. The result is a track that feels both personal and universal, thus impossible to ignore.

Co-produced by Vaïtro and Regah, ‘My Girl’ bursts with an irresistibly catchy groove that will have you hooked from start to finish. Young Rob is in his element. His expressive lyrics and vocals relay sincere emotions that culminate in a bright track perfect for the big stage. The warmth he radiates is energizing–the kind that lights up faces and reveals a tender side. According to Young Rob, the inspiration behind ‘My Girl’ came from a simple truth:

“Finding true love these days is a real struggle,” he explains. ‘My Girl’ is about knowing

how to treat and care for a real one when you’re lucky enough to have one by your side.

It’s a blessing to find a good woman. They deserve all the love and affection they can get.”

‘My Girl’ sets the stage for another ambitious year for Young Rob. The star enjoyed multiple successes last year, releasing a string of hits–’Show Me (Remix)’ featuring Sada, ‘Cali Girl’ featuring Lonzo Starr, the Daft Punk-esque ‘Just Dance,’ and the explosive ‘Fire Dey.’ As a result, fans can expect an equally active year from the ‘Freakiana’ hitmaker.
