Steven Adeoye doesn’t miss when it comes to witty, street-savvy Afropop, and “View Once” is
no exception. Following his breakout track “Ali,” the fast-rising artist returns with a cheeky love
song laced with slang, subtext, and swagger.
“View Once” flips the concept of social media’s disappearing messages into a demand for
loyalty and attention. “Funmi ni view once, baddy wey no dey do runs” is both a flirt and a
flex, calling out emotional games with sharp humour. Steven layers meme-worthy lines with
romantic threats that could only come from the streets of Naija.
The production is upbeat and bouncy, designed for dancefloors and social media snippets. The
charm of “View Once” lies in how it mixes love language with local banter, giving listeners
something to laugh about and something to quote.
“It’s all jokes, but it’s also real. Everyone’s been in that kind of love: playful, dramatic,
and sometimes too deep,” Steven shares.
