Afro-fusion newcomer and Fresh Meat AV is one of the fastest rising acts out of Africa this year. First gaining traction mid-way through the year with the release of his viral single “Big Thug Boys,” the singer has continued to sustain the momentum by turning his attention to social platforms such as TikTok and Thriller which have bolstered the song’s visibility and showcased his musical abilities.

This year alone, AV has peaked at No. 5 on the Thriller charts, infiltrated accounts all over TikTok less than three weeks from his debut single release and earned a title as one of the year’s most Shazamed songs. He’s become almost impossible to ignore with his sound taking on new heights as he soars in the industry.  Without losing any steam, the singer is now back with a new single in time for the busy December schedule. 

Released today, the new single  “Confession” is a hypnotic new track primed to get listeners on the dancefloor. The Tempoe-produced number is as the title implies, a romantic track that finds AV making sweet confessions to his romantic interest. Over a sweet array of harmonious keys, the singer acknowledges his feelings for this woman, confessing the ways in which she makes him feel and speaking to their future. With lyrics such as “I must confess your ibadi na my objective/e dey give me problems,” AV shows more of his melody-driven sound and knack for radio-ready hits.
