Ahead of his third album “Son of Chike,” Nigerian artist Chike has released a thought-provoking new single titled “Man Not God.”
Known for his distinctive voice, Chike has captivated listeners with his unique blend of RnB, folk, ballad, and Igbo indigenous influences.
“Man Not God” is a soul-stirring folk ballad that offers timeless wisdom and profound introspection. Inspired by Celestine Ukwu’s classic “Ife Si Na Chi,” the song features a haunting melody and Chike’s soulful vocals, creating an intimate atmosphere.
The rich acoustic instrumentation and heartfelt delivery make it a powerful anthem of humility and faith, encouraging listeners to reflect deeply on their journeys and the divine influence in their lives.
Chike explains that the song reflects his belief that his journey, both as an artist and as a person, depends on God’s will. He notes that while humans may try to play God, the outcome of events often shows how far removed they are from man’s control.
