Following the release of his critically acclaimed sophomore album, Body & Soul, Nigerian pop star Joseph Akinwale, better known as Joeboy, has returned with an evocative new bop, titled, Only God Can Save Me. The song is set to usher in his forthcoming EP release, Body, Soul & Spirit, scheduled to be released next weekend.

Joeboy’s Body, Soul & Spirit EP is expected to pick up exactly where he left off on his Body & Soul album, with the upcoming EP serving as the perfect antithesis to the recently released album. Feeding off the emotional undertones of the last song on the Body & Soul album, ‘Halle’, where he is troubled, unhappy, and looking to God and family for succour, Joeboy carries forward this introspection with the new EP’s lead single ‘Only God Can Save Me’.

Produced by Debo.x, this heartfelt track is an embodiment of the age-old saying, “Let go and let God”. Over moody synths, dark piano arrangements, and looming drum patterns, Joeboy delves deep into the realisation that humans are fallible and can often leave us disappointed.
