Nigerian music legend 2Baba joins forces with the evocative composer Oscar Heman-Ackah to deliver a hauntingly beautiful track that feels like a whispered prayer in the middle of chaos.
“Save Me” is a song, and a soul laid bare that was released as part of the soundtrack for the hit TV series To Kill A Monkey.
2Baba’s delivery is raw, almost fragile. He doesn’t just sing, he also pleads. The lyrics speak of exhaustion, betrayal, and the overwhelming weight of expectations. It is a cry for help from someone who has been strong for too long.
One line that stands out: “Save me from the noise, from the lies, from myself.”
Directed by Kemi Adetiba, the music video adds another layer of depth.
“Save Me” hits differently because it’s not trying to be a hit – it is trying to be heard.
