Lifesize Teddy is kicking off the year with a bang, dropping his first single of the year titled ‘Selina’. Produced by the GRAMMY-nominated Sparrq (known for his work with Ayra Starr and Davido), ‘Selina’ is a captivating blend of Hip-Hop and Afrobeats that sets the perfect tone for the summer ahead. Showcasing his versatility, Lifesize Teddy effortlessly transitions between heartfelt vocals and razor-sharp rap on the track.
Despite its upbeat vibe, ‘Selina’ delves into the complexities of love, exploring the frustration of being in a relationship with someone who refuses to take responsibility for their actions. The title of the song is derived from a regional slang term used in Lifesize Teddy’s hometown of Port Harcourt, meaning “good luck charm” or “talisman”.
Reflecting on the song’s meaning, Lifesize Teddy explained: “‘Selina’ captures the experience of idolizing someone who ultimately disappoints you. It’s about putting someone on a pedestal only to have that image shattered when they fail to live up to their promises.”
