Iyanya – Royalty ft. Wizard Chan & Nuellah Rose

Renowned Nigerian singer and songwriter Iyanya returns with “Royalty“, a smooth track lifted from his Rumberas album that finds him in a reflective, confident space.

Moreover, the track sees Iyanya exploring themes of self-worth and recognition, weaving lyrics that balance ambition with gratitude. His delivery feels measured yet assured, as he navigates the song’s R&B-leaning terrain with the kind of maturity that comes from years in the industry. There’s a warmth to his vocal performance here that contrasts nicely with the cooler, more detached approach we sometimes hear in contemporary Afrobeats.

All in all, “Royalty” leans into a blend of Afrobeats and soul that feels both polished and personal, with production that favours subtle grooves over heavy percussion. The instrumentation stays understated, giving Iyanya’s voice plenty of room to breathe and connect. If you’re looking for something that doesn’t demand too much but still rewards a proper listen, add this one to your rotation and let us know what you think.
