ChechDaProducer, Guchi, and her guest are struck, smitten, and unabashedly bleeding sonic love. This release marks the last lap before the delivery of Guchi’s second studio project.

Guchi and Yemi Aladego verse for verse, in the appraisal of a lover who ticks all the boxes. Guchi acknowledges the insanity of this kind of love and Yemi pledges her availability, pleading for the emotional frequency to be maintained.
