In an exciting move beyond his football career, Nigerian star Alex Iwobi has released his latest single, “What’s Luv?” Known widely for his impressive skills on the field with Fulham FC, Iwobi is now exploring a passion for music. This track, blending Afro-Swing and Rap elements, not only celebrates his African heritage but also brings a powerful message of love, ambition, and self-expression.
For this project, Iwobi collaborated with his close friend SPKS and rising artist MBrown. Together, they bring a unique energy and rhythm to the song, which captures themes of positivity and personal growth. Through this creative partnership, they hope to inspire listeners to focus on their dreams and avoid negative influences. With lively rhythms and introspective lyrics, “What’s Luv?” delivers a sound that reflects the vibrant Afro-Swing genre, making it both captivating and meaningful.
A New Platform for Influence
When discussing his latest track, Iwobi emphasized that music offers him an important outlet for connecting with his audience in ways football alone cannot. While his football career has brought him a large following, he believes music allows him to connect with fans on a deeper level. Through “What’s Luv?”, Iwobi aims to reach young listeners, encouraging them to explore their talents and make positive choices. Moreover, he sees this track as a way to promote unity, helping youth feel inspired to build community rather than facing life’s challenges alone.
Interestingly, this is not Iwobi’s first foray into music; “What’s Luv?” follows his initial release, “Don’t Shoot,” which focused on addressing street violence and youth empowerment. However, with his latest track, Iwobi chooses a lighter, yet equally powerful, approach by emphasizing love, community, and the strength found in unity.
Athletes Embracing Creativity
Iwobi’s journey into the music world reflects a growing trend of athletes who pursue creative projects alongside their sports careers. By releasing “What’s Luv?”, Iwobi joins a list of sports figures who use their platforms to inspire others beyond their profession. This venture highlights how athletes can break boundaries, showing how they can follow their passions and positively influence fans.
As fans across Nigeria and beyond tune in to “What’s Luv?”, many will see Iwobi in a new light—an athlete with a message who strives to connect through the universal language of music.
