Kunmie - Confession

       Starting off with a soft symphony, our favorite lover boy, Kunmie released his latest track “Confession” last Friday. Produced by the classic Venomous, who understands the sound so clearly, Kunmie does “Confession” there’s an electric synergy breathing there. “Confessions” stands out, as ​ Kunmie invites listeners to the crux of his feelings. The softness draws you near but the rawness of emotions keeps you in closer. As he sings “Ololufe mi”, in the softest tones you’ve ever heard, you instantly learn that love as it aches, can also be really quiet.   

​Confessions is about falling in love, so hard it hurts. It’s vulnerability personified. It’s the staying up at night, the stinging of the heart as you crave a deeper connection with someone you’ve admired for so long. It’s wanting them, waiting on them, a desperate need to cross the plane of friendship into something more. ​So if you’re looking for a way to tell someone you really like them, to break the ice boldly saying you want something more, try “Confessions”, it’s the best place to start
