Every generation produces its anthem of struggle — a song that captures the shared pulse of those grinding in silence, those balancing dreams with daily survival. In 2025, Kpeseh delivers that anthem with “247”, featuring JeriQ and produced by Kindwizz.
The song is an ode to the uncelebrated. Built around street Afrobeat grooves and minimalist rhythms, “247” carries the intimacy of lived experience. Kpeseh’s writing draws from the frustrations and quiet victories of Nigeria’s young people — from students to techies to roadside vendors — who keep pushing regardless of circumstance.
Lines like “Omo mummy no try me, I’m so crazy when it comes to this yee” reveal a raw, almost defiant energy. It’s the kind of lyric that defines Lagos youth culture — a cocktail of exhaustion, humor, and unbreakable will. JeriQ, in turn, arrives as the voice of the East: his flow mixes prayer, proverbs, and punchlines that speak directly to the hustler’s soul.
What separates “247” from other motivational songs is its refusal to romanticize struggle. Instead, it honors it — acknowledges its cost. The chemistry between both artists is undeniable; you hear mutual respect, not hierarchy. And in an era where Nigerian pop is often accused of emotional shallowness, Kpeseh dares to make honesty sound cool again.
Beyond its musical merit, “247” is also a cultural document. It shows that success stories don’t just come from the big cities — they come from quiet corners where people believe in their calling.
247 isn’t just music; it’s a mindset — the belief that consistency eventually cuts through noise.
