Mayorkun, also known as the Mayor of Lagos, drops his first music single of the year, “Certified Loner (No Competition),” which is available now on all digital platforms and distributed by Sony Music Entertainment/Black Butter Records UK.
The brand-new tune follows his highly acclaimed sophomore album, Back in Office, which debuted at #1 with the lead single, Holy Father, garnering over 40 million streams across digital platforms, dominating the radio charts for five weeks in a row, and spending 13 weeks on the UK Afrobeats chart.
Mayorkun, who is now regarded as a music authority, is not slowing down in his efforts to maintain this status.
Mayorkun returns with a vengeance to demonstrate his dominance in the music industry, getting nto character as one of the country’s finest creatives in music to release an Amapiano-inspired single that has already come in a whirlwind fashion.
The single debuted on TikTok with a teaser sound that was soon devoured by users, later appearing on the app’s trending part and now boasting nearly 300,000 creations.
Mayorkun’s specialization in crafting Afropop compositions and his penchant for enriching these sounds with humorous twists from the Amapiano genre are on display once again in “Certified Loner (No Competition).” The geng (Mayorkun’s cult following) can now put their keen wait for new music to rest, as the track drops just in time to get the party started for the arrival of summer and all the good vibes that comes with it.
