Nigeria’s vocal powerhouse Omawumi just dropped the official music video for “In Love”, and it’s everything: emotional, poised, and deeply human. The soulful Afro-R&B ballad written by Omawumi and Benjamin Obadje, produced by Spellz, feels like a visual memoir and a love letter to healing itself.
The video premiered via her official YouTube on July 26, accompanied by a flood of celebration from fans hitting replay and praising her voice and vulnerability. Omawumi herself teased it as a “whole vibe,” urging fans to subscribe and turn on notifications for the drop.
This isn’t a breakup anthem, it’s the joy that comes after heartbreak. From the opening confession “It’s been a long time I’ve been feeling your love” to hopeful choruses about peace and presence, “In Love” is built on redemption, not drama. According to The Lagos Review, she has created a sonic space that invites listeners to feel healing, not just harmony.
Omawumi’s musical journey from Wonder Woman to Lasso of Truth to Love Deep High Life has always balanced powerful vocals with authentic storytelling (née Delta-born singer, reality show runner-up turned celebrated star). Now, “In Love” confirms she’s still evolving, more reflective, more mature, and more tender.
