Nigerian singer-songwriter Skelvin returns with “Survival,” a motivational anthem that captures the grind of chasing a better life and pushing through hardship. The record first arrived on Christmas Eve in 2023, and it later found a home on his 2024 EP The Revelation.
Skelvin handles this one solo, and he sticks to the uplifting tone that runs through much of his catalog. Young G Mozes handled production, keeping things tight at three minutes and 39 seconds. That concise format helped the song spread quickly across social media, and it introduced his sound to many new listeners.
His range stretches beyond this release, though. The artist has since followed up with tracks like “Cana,” “My Comforter,” “Hallelu,” “Alubarika,” “One Life,” “Masterpiece,” and “Freedom.” He moves between hip-hop, rap, and gospel-tinged material, working with names like Rybeena, Smur Lee, and Corizo along the way.
“Survival” leans into resilience, and Skelvin delivers it with a steady, encouraging presence. The mood suits anyone pushing through a rough patch, and the catchy hook makes the message easy to carry. Have you listened to “Survival” yet? Drop your thoughts in the comment section.
