Adekunle Gold’s “Nurse Alabere” is a melancholic, Youruba-infused track about the emotional pain of a breakup and the search for healing. The title, which translates to “Nurse Syringe,” is a metaphor for a person who can provide the remedy for his heartbreak. He sings about “bleeding” and needing “healing,” expressing deep frustration that his ex didn’t try to make their relationship work.
