In the hook, (Praise Onakoya) B RAJI makes it clear that the girl he’s speaking of is African Irish, specially from Waterford, a South-East county in Ireland.

RAJI Music are also African Irish (Nigerian-Irish to be exact) so this song depicts the type of women we encounter living here.

In his verse, Ayo Tori (Ayo Toritsemotse) describes her physical shape and her rich dark skin “like chocolate”. He also uses the word “cailín”, which is the Irish word for girl, as a  nickname to describe her. As a Nigerian he then makes it clear where the girls he likes are from; appreciating the beauty from the Igbo, Yoruba and Itsekiri tribes.

Junzy (Ebruba Mideno) on the bridge also describes a physical beauty, painting us a picture of a beautiful African girl with distinct African features “brown skin, lips so juicy”.

The adoration of these features is a reminder to African girls around the world that they are beautiful the way they are. We love their natural features and we wouldn’t trade them for the world.
