      Sekou has released his new single, ‘Never Gunna Give You Up’, accompanied by a music video directed by RELTA.

      This Motown-inspired track narrates the story of “intertwining connections and steadfast foundations,” featuring Sekou’s rich, soothing vocals supported by retro production elements.

      Regarding the song, Sekou explains: “‘Never Gunna Give You Up’ is about liberation, as well as the sensation of discovering what belongs to you and ensuring it remains yours.”

      This new release follows Sekou’s earlier single, ‘Catching Bodies’, which debuted in August on Jack Saunders’ New Music Show. Having already secured a spot in the Top 10 of BBC Radio 1’s Sound of 2024 poll, Sekou has also made history as the youngest nominee for the BRIT Rising Star award.

      Recently, Sekou has collaborated with prominent figures in the music industry, including Justin Bieber, Central Cee, and Kevin Abstract.

      The official music video for ‘Never Gunna Give You Up’ beautifully depicts the vibrant culture of the ’70s and ’80s, infused with the energy and spirit of Gen Z.
