In “Sunkere,” Reminisce uses a mix of Yoruba and English to deliver playful vibes. The lyrics express his desire for a lady he’s attracted to, asking why she’s being evasive or “playing hard to get” (“sunkere fakere”). He makes a confident pitch to her, mentioning his status and wealth (“Mi o n se awon boys ti ile ise wan ti fold up,” which translates to “I’m not like those boys whose businesses have folded up”). The track is essentially a flirtatious and confident appeal to a potential love interest over a catchy beat.
