Street-minded act Showbezzy rolls up his sleeves on a gritty new record titled “Grind.” The title is a work ethic in one word, so the song probably stays close to the hustle.

After the mood-setting “Intro,” this one reads like his first real statement. Hustle songs remain a staple of Nigerian street pop, since so many listeners live the story. A short title also makes the track easy to repeat as a caption.

Showbezzy probably raps and sings in a rough, determined tone. He sounds like a man who has been up since dawn and isn’t complaining. His lines stay short, and a hint of pride shows between them.

No guest appears, so the story stays his own. The lyrics most likely talk about working hard, ignoring doubters and chasing a bigger life, with plain slang doing the work. A repeated title in the hook gives the crowd something to chant.
