As rising Nigerian singer Konstance prepares for her debut EP, she releases her new single "My Heart," featuring fellow Nigerian singer Majeeed. The track, written and composed by both artists, is an R&B/afrobeats-infused jam that is centered on puppy love and the emotions that come with finding that special someone. Bolstered by the warm guitar licks and sublime textures, Konstance and Majeeed share candid feelings about going all the way for their lovers and they hope the love gets reciprocated with the same energy. Majeeed led the song with a mix of Yoruba and Nigerian Pidgin English followed by Konstance's sultry melodic runs and a captivating hook that cements the true essence of love.
The song also comes with a music video directed by Bushboy Machiavelli (Ayra Starr, Bella Shmurda, Oxlade) and shot on location in Lagos, which perfectly complements the song’s narrative of young love, and brings the track further to life using a stylish set piece, eye-popping motifs and engaging visual effects.
