“Pempe” brings Seyi Shay and Yemi Alade together for a high-energy Afropop anthem about boundaries and the exhausting reality of being a hot lady in the public eye. The track addresses social media trolls, men who assume too much, and the constant attention that comes with fame. Both powerhouses make it clear: ogbeni, no go there.
The title translates to “hot lady” from street slang, and they’re setting firm lines about respecting their space and not playing with their reputation.
