Nigerian Afro-soul and Afro-pop sensation BoyPee, born Sopuru Precious, has released his poignant new single First Sight, marking his first solo release of 2025. The track follows his standout feature on Rord Kelly’s Chikito and the chart-topping 2024 remix of Ogechi with Davido, which dominated the Official Nigeria TurnTable Top 100. Boasting 1.3 million monthly Spotify listeners, BoyPee continues to captivate with his soulful delivery, this time delving into the raw emotions of a love turned sour.
First Sight is a deeply emotional Afro-soul ballad that chronicles the pain of a romance gone awry, where BoyPee lays bare the heartbreak of a lover who played and toyed with his heart. His rich, soulful vocals weave a narrative of betrayal and longing, set against melancholic melodies and subtle Afro-pop rhythms. Lyrics reveal the sting of deceit, with lines hinting at a connection that began with promise but ended in disillusionment, capturing the moment his trust was shattered. The production enhances the track’s emotional weight with tender instrumentation, making it a stirring anthem for anyone who’s felt the ache of a broken heart.
Building on his rise with hits like Ogechi, First Sight cements his reputation as a storyteller who blends cultural roots with universal themes, offering a track that resonates deeply with listeners grappling with love’s highs and lows.
