LAGOS IN PARIS cuts sharply with something clear. And with “SINATANALE,” the third single, the mysterious West African electronic collective is back here. You feel them planting a flag for mental resilience and purposeful living. Constructed around a hook that the band has said surfaced while working solo in the studio one day, the song booms with a magnetic groove. Its central beat is guided by the spirit of the message, protect your peace, and move with intention.
TSIE, a Ghanaian artist, provides earthy and nomadic lyrics recorded during the group’s travels in Senegal, the Ivory Coast, and Ghana. His delivery is spirited, spontaneous, and even raw, unadulterated burst that neatly reflects the lyrics and the track's message. Tune out the noise, stay grounded, and walk with conviction yourself. LAGOS IN PARIS calls it a “rallying cry for self-determination,” and that’s pretty much what it feels like.
Its black-and-white music video is a bold departure from the color-saturated visuals of their previous work. Set in the kinetic sprawl of Ghana, it follows a lone figure fraying under the weight of modern life, emails, honking cars, and crowded streets until he discovers an instant of calm at the city’s edge. And the monochrome is not just a stylistic publishing choice, the novel is a statement. “Raw, stripped back, and surprising,” the band says. And it is. It reflects the song’s core: not much to pull distractions away from, lots of truth.
What sets “Sinatanale” apart is not so much its production (which slaps) or its visuals (which mesmerize), but the emotional intelligence baked into every beat and bar. Lagos, the Nigerian wave-making womenswear brand, again showcases their ambition to go beyond trend generation. They’re here to shape culture, move energy, and provide soundtracks for individuals who choose to walk through the world with a bit more intention.
