Influenced by Erykah Badu, Nina Simone, Lauryn Hill, Tems. Hailing from the ancient rock city of Abeokuta, Nigeria, Abeni Aura weaves a captivating tapestry of sultry Afrobeats, blending her gospel-infused velvet vocals with R&B-influenced melodies. Her music, primarily driven by her voice, explores deeply confessional lyrics about desire and self-worth, drawing inspiration from the soulful depths of Erykah Badu and Nina Simone. Now based in the vibrant heart of Lagos, Abeni’s sound is a warm, intimate slow-burn.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Condo AC hums a prayer for the power grid
Feel your voice on the breeze from the old Third Mainland bridge
They see the glaze, the shine, they don't know the cost
Just a girl from the rock, trying not to get lost

[Chorus]
Omo, I am my mother's prayer wheel
Turning in this city's kiln-hot heat
E dey shine, this feeling so real
Her whispers plant the ground beneath my feet

[Verse 2]
You shaped my spine from Olumo clay, remember?
Said my cracks just let the light enter
Now the deals get signed with a foreign pen
But na your voice I hear when the doubt creeps in

[Chorus]
Omo, I am my mother's prayer wheel
Turning in this city's kiln-hot heat
E dey shine, this feeling so real
Her whispers plant the ground beneath my feet

[Bridge]
(Adura iya mi) The fire gets low
(Adura iya mi) The roots, they still grow

[Outro]
Yeah, the roots, they still grow
Abeni o.
