The sound of Amapiano is forever evolving, and one artist who contributes to the culture is Nigerian musician Spearheart. Nigerian singer-songwriter Spearheart, a talented Soul artist, releases his new offering ‘Afẹ́fẹ́ Ìfẹ (Love Wind)‘, a vibrant Amapiano-driven love anthem that blends African rhythms, heartfelt emotion, and irresistible dance energy.
Translating to ‘Love Wind’ in Yoruba, Afẹ́fẹ́ Ìfẹ captures the feeling of being swept away by deep, undeniable love. With smooth harmonies, soft-hitting log drums, and Spearheart’s vocal delivery, the track fuses Nigerian romantic storytelling with the global movement of Amapiano, creating a sound that is both culturally rooted and internationally appealing.
Produced by Progresyv_CPT and featuring Azi Sakwe, the song showcases Spearheart’s artistic growth and versatility as he expands his sound beyond Soul into the broader Amapiano landscape. ‘Afẹ́fẹ́ Ìfẹ (Love Wind)’ will resonate with listeners on dance floors, playlists, and radio stations across Africa and beyond. The single marks an exciting new era for Spearheart, following his earlier release ‘Awakening’, and further cements his identity as a storyteller who balances emotion with rhythm.
