Following the success of his hit songs, Sugar (2017), Grind Don’t Stop featuring O’Teezy (2017), Not Ah Likke Vibe (2018), Beloni featuring Trod (2023) and his attainment of the hood hero status in his Awori hometown, Lagos-based rapper, Shegzy Marley, who is fondly lauded as the ‘Lil Durk Awori’, has released a new tune, titled, Make It Out.

Being his first release for 2024 and coming during the highly festive end-of-year period, the new single, which is a soulful and uplifting track, is sure to resonate with music lovers everywhere. It’s evident that with the thumping instrumentals, the fast-rising artiste who is not merely gunning for the big leagues but fully equipped to take his sound beyond the spheres of his neighbourhood is poised to ruffle shoulders with the established acts in the music industry.

In the compelling Yoruba drill anthem choke-full with a level of grit and tenacity, Shegzy Marley whose real names are Akinloye Segun Emmanuel, weaves his hopes and aspiration for wealth and pomp into punchy lines that speak for the average young Nigerian whose goal is to rise above their unfair socio-economic odds and elevate their social status.

The song features exciting street-hop act Ariyo Awodele Ezekiel popularly known as Areezy, who delivered a boisterous hook on the collaboration. Its catchy and upbeat melody, and Shegzy Marley’s soulful vocals, delivering a powerful message of hope and resilience, makes the record a testament to his growth and maturity as an artiste.
