Nigerian Afropop Artist Vincent Nnamdi Adolphus Releases a slow-burning Afro-soul Single “Need My Love”

“Need My Love” is a slow-burning Afro-soul record that explores the tension between desire and emotional distance. Over a smooth, low-tempo Afrobeats rhythm layered with sensual melodies, May Jay delivers a captivating narrative of a woman yearning for his affection—while he remains unapologetically present, but only on his own terms.

Blending intimacy with restraint, the track leans into a moody, late-night atmosphere where passion takes center stage, but vulnerability stays just out of reach. With its hypnotic groove and emotionally charged delivery, “Need My Love” captures the complexity of modern romance—where connection can be intense, yet undefined.

It’s a seductive, emotionally layered soundscape designed for quiet moments, dim lights, and everything in between.

Need My Love would resonate with playlists centered around:

– Calm Afro-soul & Afro R&B
– Late-night & Good feel rhythm
– Emotional and bedroom vibes
– Emerging Afro-pop voices

This is a priority single and the foundation of a broader campaign leading into the EP era. Thank you for your consideration.

Vincent Nnamdi Adolphus – known by the moniker May Jay is one of the latest Afropop artists to emerge on the Nigerian music scene. Born on the 9th of July 1993 in the oil-rich area of Portharcourt, May Jay is an indigene of Mbeke in Isi-ala Mbano, Imo State and the second of five children born to the lhemeje family. He completed his primary education at Maybloom Primary School, his secondary education at Benviatto High School before joining the Rivers State University to acquire a degree in Hotel Catering and Management. He describes himself as a very friendly, easy-going and no-nonsense person.

May Jay gained his music footing in the 2000s, around the same time as the unveiling of one of his biggest influences, Chris Brown. He however did not start visiting the studio until 2010, following the debut of another of his influences, Wizkid. Other acts that consistently inspire Mayjay’s sound include American singer Ty Dollar Sign and Jamaica’s modern dancehall crooner Kranium. Housed under the large umbrella of Afropop, May Jay’s musical approach is best defined as Afro fusion. He borrows elements from Jamaican music styles and merges them with different Afrocentric vibes to create pieces fit for local and global consumption.

Mayjay strongly believes that everything happens for a reason and that real success lies in the process of working towards one’s dreams. He is also of the opinion that moving slow and steady in the industry guarantees better results than being pressured into short term wins. He is currently an independent artist but is open to collaborations and partnerships that will take his craft to the next level.

May Jay is currently on the verge of releasing new projects accompanied by top-notch videos that will testify to the greatness of his art.
