Built around warm vocal layers, steady percussion, and meditative writing, “Spiritual” sets the tone for a body of work focused on growth, identity, and transformation.
“This song came from a moment where everything finally made sense,” Yinminu shares. “It’s about letting go of what you’re trying to force and allowing yourself to be guided. It’s the feeling of being understood without having to explain.”
The release marks the beginning of a five-song rollout that spans different genres and emotional chapters. WE ARE NOT THE SAME moves through themes of surrender (“Spiritual”), confidence (“Missed Calls”), heaviness (“Secrets”), emotional transition (“Changes”), and survival (“It’s Not The Same Anymore”). Each track offers a different vantage point on the central idea that transformation, though sometimes uncomfortable, is necessary.
“Spiritual” was recorded in Oakland with collaborators, Diaspora Boys.; who helped shape its textured, intimate soundscape. The track arrives with striking visuals featuring Yinminu overlooking the Pacific coastline in flowing red fabric; an image that mirrors the song’s energy: calm, powerful, and centered.

Ghanaian Afrobeats artist, LUCKY SIKI, makes his industry debut with the party anthem “Derty December”
It’s a high-voltage song that perfectly captures the sight and sound of Nigeria’s festive season, with its colors, unfiltered and raw energy and camaraderie.
Driven by an Afrocentric trap beat with ambitious storytelling of the diaspora lifestyle, the record captures it all; the movement of shakers from party to afterparty, in convoys and police escorts, the meeting of old friends and introduction to new ones from around the world, all gathering to celebrate the season in Lagos, Nigeria.
From “March that machine” to “na convoy convoy,” “Derty December” captures the reckless joy and coded status play that defines December in Naija.
“This is Lagos’ most notorious month bottled in a beat: the chaos, the champagne, the convoys, the comeback energy of the diaspora,”says Lucky Siki.
He added: “December in Nigeria is “pure madness”, it is electric, rowdy and dangerous but the raw joy you experience is what pulls you back every year and that’s what I wanted to capture with this track.”
Derty December plays into this rowdiness, it’s a chant-driven street anthem built for the clubs, for the cruise, and for every night the city refuses to sleep.
It’s a vibrant, rhythm-rich track that pays homage to the vintage soul of Afrobeat while bringing a fresh, modern pulse.

“A lot of artists and lazy producers are trying to water down Afrobeat, but I still believe in holding on to the real, rich Afro-sound. Think Fela’s spirit with today’s bounce. “
