The song was written by Asari and cleverly describes the complete 180 degree turn – a new special choice he made for his life: ‘’U-Turn, you turned my life around, it was upside down, you turned it all around’’, Mark belts. Likewise, the song is written in a way to be consumed either spiritually or romantically. ‘U-Turn’ is the UK R&B singer’s first outing since last year’s Amapiano single ‘Wings’ and is teamed with a performance video directed by London-based director, Shot By Soso. The visual features producer, XVR BLCK on the MPC and London guitarist, Jemil Major, whose genius guitar skills are a thing on the actual record.
‘U-Turn’ was specially crafted by Hackney-based producer, XVR BLCK (Xavier Black), a well-known producer in the UK’s R&B scene and stars; Ghetts, Cherri V, JayBay, Taliwhoah and many more, thanks to a finesse inspired by the likes of Timbaland, Dallas Austin, Ryan Leslie and Kaytranada.

KIKI CELINE LEARNS FROM OLD LOVE ON NEW SONG
Love being the greatest emotion has never been an overstatement. However, when talking about what it means to love and be loved, we often forget that sometimes the way someone loves us can change. When that happens, we are left with nothing but the memories of how we were loved by that person.
Audio link: https://
On her first single of the year 2024, Ghanaian singer KiKi Celine continues her beautiful run from 2023 as she pours out her heart and emotions on her new song titled “Old Love.”
The song cements Celine’s position as one of the best vocalists around and puts her songwriting abilities on full display. The song is reminiscent of early 2000s R&B classics we grew up on, with KiKi Celine’s bounce. Produced by Insvne Auggie, the song takes listeners on a journey of love gone wrong, pain, and reliving the few good times spent with a significant other.
If Celine’s writing or vocals were ever in doubt, “Old Love” will clear any doubts there are about the singer’s artistry. With a burgeoning R&B scene in Ghana and West and East Africa, Celine enters the conversation with this record. The melodies, delivery, and overall storytelling are remarkable and are sure to leave listeners in their “feels.”
Love teaches us a lot about others and ourselves that we do not know until we experience being loved by them. The song is an appreciation of how it feels to be loved while calling out people who introduce you to an experience they can never keep up with. When all is said and done, we will need more than just flowers and a touch of old love.
R&B music is alive, and KiKi Celine is determined to be one of the names synonymous with the genre whenever conversations about the genre come up.
Stream “Old Love” now on all platforms.
