Lagos NG, Nov 7 (Planet Akinadé) — Nigerian ‘Afro-fusion’ star Omah Lay has officially sparked excitement among fans by releasing a preview for what appears to be his upcoming music ‘Listen To My Voice’. The 26-second teaser signals the arrival of fresh material and possibly a new chapter in his artistic journey.

On November 7, 2025, the artiste shared a snippet on social media, including X, giving fans a first taste of what’s coming, after a 14-month hiatus since his 2024 track ‘Moving’. The snippet features his distinctive soulful vocals layered over a moody, mellow but crispy beat; the kind of atmospheric production that fans will recognise from his earlier work, but this time suggesting perhaps a more evolved direction.
