Great vibes in both concept and style – a perfectly timed release to light up the start of the warmer seasons. Renowned Nigerian artist GidiSol launches an iconic and melodically intoxicating ode to positivity and manifestation, with the smooth yet upbeat new single Mecca.
Featuring an organic Afro-soul production of humble guitars, hand rhythms, and a rise and fall vocal of modest to passionate conviction, Mecca draws upon GidiSol’s own grandmother’s wisdom that she passed down through the generations. Her message was to “be good at all times, and the goodness of the universe will find its way to you.”
As such, the song is a humble but uplifting ode to precisely that kind of kindness and intention, and its inspiring sentiments ring loud as you listen through what proves one of GidiSol’s most deeply soothing and enjoyable releases to date.
Lyrically a tribute to Mecca itself, the song intertwines real-life experiences and stories from GidiSol’s heritage, his city, its people and culture. The music is naturally built up around these genuine instrumental traits, and GidiSol’s vocal guidance proceeds to offer an alluring and catchy progression that naturally lingers in the mind.
Forever focused on his own intentions as a thoughtful songwriter and confident performer, GidiSol continues to bring together subtle aspects of Dancehall, Afro Vision, and Afro Soul, to connect with audiences far and wide for both his stylistic appeal and the thought-provoking nature of his lyrics. Mecca acts as a fine dedication to precisely that quality, to the strength and direction of his musicality at large. The single speaks volumes on what lies ahead as the summer of 2025 swings boldly into view.
