    Lagos-based artist Boyloh has released “Two People”, a mid-tempo Afrobeats track centred on attraction, intimacy and appreciation of feminine beauty.

    Released on August 14, the song is built around a recurring saxophone melody and a percussion-led groove. Boyloh’s vocals carry the romantic lyrics, while the chorus relies on repetition to reinforce the song’s central theme of two people sharing an intimate moment.

    Boyloh releases music through Belflex Empire.
