SB Live brings that spirit to life on “Arakunrin,” an uplifting release that pairs contemporary gospel themes with lively Afro-highlife.
The song arrives under the SB Live Band label and forms part of the build-up to the Nigerian singer’s coming Only God album. SB Live, also known as Seun Bankole, is a songwriter and highlife-gospel instrumentalist.
The Yoruba title “Arakunrin” translates to “Gentleman” or “Sir,” so the record carries a welcoming identity from the start. Its lyrics point to a personal testimony of salvation and freedom. The message centres on freedom, gratitude, redemption, and divine deliverance.
Musically, the track keeps a danceable Afro-highlife feel while holding firm to its gospel foundation. SB Live built the song to reach both young and older listeners instead of one age group. That choice gives the arrangement room to move without losing its worship core.
