Mary Nnah

Afrosoul sensation, Uchechi Emelonye, has lent her voice to support heartbroken women, especially in Nigeria, by calling out men who break promises and take the emotions of decent ladies for granted.

During a press interview in Lagos, Uchechi dedicated her song ‘Foolish’ to Nigerian ladies in this category, urging them to move on with their lives. According to her, “It’s a special dedication to very decent ladies out there who are being ‘served breakfast’ by their men. In reality, it’s not a sign of weakness to fall in love. They should realize that the guys taking advantage of decent ladies and toying with their emotions are ‘Foolish’. They should keep their heads up, learn to let go, and say goodbye. They will definitely meet the right guy who truly deserves them.”

“Foolish” is one of the wave-making tracks from Uchechi Emelonye’s newly released Mixed Emotions album under the Emelux Records imprint. Other tracks in the album include “My Time,” “First Time,” “Over You,” “Dance,” and “Margins.”

Fondly called the Afrosoul Princess, Uchechi, a UK-trained lawyer, had earlier released three singles: “Little Black Bird,” “Sunrise to Sundown,” and “Underwater,” which won the BBC Music Introducing “Record of the Year 2022” in Lancashire, England.
