Rising act Hammerboi calls Zerrydl onto a warm new record titled “Itohan,” which is a duet built around one woman’s name. The title is a Benin name, so the song probably salutes one special woman.
Edo names carry real pride, and naming a track after one adds cultural flavour. Fans from Benin City will likely catch the nod right away. Zerrydl joins as a second voice, so the praise gets a duet feel.
Hammerboi likely opens in a warm, charming tone. He sounds like a man who can’t hide his smile while describing her. His lines stay simple, so each compliment lands cleanly. Zerrydl follows with a smoother, melodic colour and gives the love note another angle.
The lyrics most likely praise Itohan’s looks, spirit and how she walks into a room, with playful touches along the way. A repeated name in the hook gives the crowd an easy line to sing.
