Emerging Nigerian artist, Kemuel is back on the scene with a brand new song, “Polo.” Following a year of notable success and collaborations, Kemuel’s musical journey continues to mesmerize listeners worldwide.
Last year, Kemuel amassed recognition from industry veterans. Most notable, Spinall and Olamide gave him a platform on “Bunda,” the standout track from Spinall’s sixth LP, Top Boy. Capitalizing on this momentum, Kemuel released “Alone” in 2023, and what ensued was a successful collaboration with producer Wondah on “Stay” in 2024.
Kemuel returns with his first single of the year titled, “Polo” as he builds anticipation for his sophomore project.
“Polo” emits positive vibes and purpose. Kemuel’s contagious rhythms and melodies hypnotizes listeners to keep hitting the replay button. Explaining the inspiration behind the song, Kemuel shares “It’s about a girl whom everyone considers eccentric, but I see her as beautifully misunderstood.”
The creation of “Polo” was serendipitous. Kemuel recalls, “I made it on a Thursday night, I didn’t even know what the song would be about until the first line hit me, and it was real life so it was easy to write and compose, i and my producer wondah took a weird approach with the beat and Melodies but alas we created a gem and I can’t wait to share it with the world, this one is for beautiful misunderstood women.”
“My chikala she be my lolo/I no fit let you go no, no/Wetin you put for your ogbono/Oh-oh-oh”
These playful lines portray Kemuel’s appeal, making “Polo” an addictive sing-along experience. Hailing from the vibrant southern state of Rivers, Kemuel embodies excellence. His musical journey began at age 13 when he joined the church choir. There, he honed his skills on piano, bass guitar, and drums, contributing to the choir’s harmonious sound. His passion for art led him to pursue a degree in Fine Art and Design from the University of Port Harcourt.
