Four of Diamonds debut with “Name On It” featuring Burna Boy

Four girls and the Port Harcourt boy

The first official single from UK’s X Factor runner-up team, Four Of Diamonds is a dancehall-pop fusion that confirms the influence Yogi says Afro-pop currently has on the UK. The song, Titled “Name On It” is written partly by Burna Boy, Tre Jean-Marie and Dayo Olatunji (Dyo) and features additional vocals from Burna Boy himself.

Though “Name On It” wasn’t written by them, the girls of Four Of Diamonds— Yasmin, Sophia, Lauren and Caroline — said in an interview that the message, valuing yourself enough to be assertive in your demands from a potential lover, resonates with them.

On “Name On It”, Four Of Diamonds sing blithely about a man shying away from an official relationship [think Destiny’s Child’s “Say My Name”], while Burna Boy takes the role of the lover full of excuses [“My enemies go for the people I love/I try not to let ’em know”] and quintessential asshole lines like “So when you done playin’, you can come find me/ You’ll never find another, ‘nother like me”.
