Uniekgrace returns back on the scene with a remake of her smash single 'AYEMI'
AYEMI is a Yoruba word that means "My Life".
Cover for "Ayemi"
Uniekgrace changed the game this time with a song of reflection and self motivation, with a soft accompaniment of the guitar with yet a gentle reggae bounce to it.
"Just when you think you should give up, the powerful lyrics acknowledges the many "one time for the shoe shining days and two times of gburu" (gburu means hustle). It is not time to give up but time to "keep on standing like a soldier" because when you fall, you just gotta get back up again. That's how winners keep winning.
Who can forget 2020? This song is for every moment that feels like we are back into lockdown but we just gotta keep going because God has given us everything we need to succeed and dominate" - Uniekgrace
