Mavin Records singer-songwriter Boy Spyce takes a bold step toward street-pop dominance with his latest single, Igboro. Historically known for his lover boy songs and R&B sensibilities, this release sees the artist leaning into his Igboro (Street/Town) credibility. It is a strategic pivot that demonstrates his versatility, he is no longer just the boy singing about Folake, but a man who understands the pulse and the hustle. Produced by Madd Thing, the track is a high-energy tune designed to dominate the festive streets and late-night club sets.

The production on Igboro is a vibrant mix of Amapiano-style log drums and high-velocity percussion, but it retains the melodic core that defines the Mavin sound. The instrumental is busy and celebratory, featuring horn stabs and bubbling synths that create an immediate sense of urgency. Boy Spyce’s vocal delivery is notably more aggressive and confident here; he trades his usual velvet tones for a more rhythmic, punchy flow that matches the track’s high energy. It’s the sound of an artist who has found a new gear, moving away from the studio and into the heart of the crowd.

Lyrically, Igboro is a tribute to the hustle and the life of a street-wise star. Boy Spyce sings about the challenges of the town, the importance of focus, and the celebration that comes after the grind. The lyrics are peppered with street slang and relatable anecdotes that will resonate with his growing fanbase in the inner-city areas of Lagos. It is a song about claiming one’s space and being proud of where one came up, delivered with the kind of charisma that suggests Boy Spyce is ready for his next level of superstardom.

For Boy Spyce, Igboro is a necessary evolution. It proves that he can handle the gritty energy of street-pop without losing the vocal finesse that made him a star in the first place. This single is poised to be one of the heaviest rotations of the year, expanding his brand and proving that he is one of the most well-rounded artists in the new school of Afrobeats. Igboro is a declaration of presence.
