Joe-boy starts 2025 with his new single, "SMH."

Nigerian singer-songwriter Joeboy has kicked off 2025 with the release of his evocative new single, "SMH," produced by longtime collaborator Tempoe. The track, which samples "Neela Nilave" from the Tamil album "Mandhera Vasal," showcases Joeboy's signature vocal range and emotional depth. 

 

"SMH" delves into the complexities of love and relationships, capturing both their highs and lows. Joeboy describes the song as reflecting the clarity that comes when one realizes not all relationships are meant to last forever, emphasizing the lessons learned from these experiences. 

 

This release follows a successful 2024 for Joeboy, which included his two-pack project "Adenuga x Concerning" and a sold-out concert in Lagos, The Lavida Experience. Looking ahead, Joeboy has announced a 2025 world tour, with sold-out shows in Australia and upcoming dates across Europe and the UK.
