Love has always been one of music’s greatest subjects, and with Only Me, Nigerian artist Deeyasso adds his voice to that timeless conversation. Known for years as a producer shaping the rhythms behind other artists’ love stories, Deeyasso now steps fully into his own as a singer and songwriter. His sound is tender and soulful, the kind of music that feels like a private confession.
Earlier this year, Deeyasso showcased his versatility with Forever and Perfect, songs that leaned into indie folk and indie pop. Now with Only Me, he offers something even more intimate. Singing, “I don’t mind if you don’t love somebody else but me,” he captures the vulnerability of being completely open in love, that delicate space between hope and fear.
He sings, not with demand, but with hope. It’s the kind of line you type, delete, retype, then send before you lose your nerve. His voice carries that same vulnerability: tender, sincere, never forced. The song moves at its own pace, giving space to every word, every pause, every unspoken feeling between the lines.
There’s a timelessness in the way Deeyasso writes and sings, like a song you might have heard years ago, but still feels fresh today. At just over two minutes, “Only Me” says what it needs to, then leaves you wanting to hear it again.
