Ghenda opens "My Luv" with a direct question to a partner caught up in suspicion: "What be the reason you dey change some for me?" It is a raw, relatable moment, the kind of emotional standoff that anyone who has loved through doubt will recognize immediately.
Featuring Oxlade, the track leans into that tension without shying away from the hurt. The lyrics cycle through a familiar frustration, putting in quiet, consistent work on a relationship while feeling invisible to the person you are doing it for. "I've been working on myself since I've been rocking with you" hits differently when the person you changed for seems not to notice.
What keeps the song from sinking into bitterness is the chorus. Despite everything, the love holds. Ghenda declares that this person gives him reason to live and something to die for, and the French phrase "je taime" woven into the hook adds a softness that feels intentional, a reminder that devotion can coexist with pain.
Oxlade's presence brings the Afrobeats warmth the song needs to land as more than a complaint. Together, the two artists capture something true about modern love: the moment you are most frustrated is often the moment you realise how deeply you are in it.
"My Luv" is the kind of song you play on repeat not because it is easy listening, but because it says the thing you have been struggling to say out loud.
