I Might is a masterful blend of classic and contemporary influences. Produced by Mvkamv himself, the track pays homage to the golden era of 90s hip-hop, featuring crisp snares and booming basslines that resonate with nostalgia. Yet, the song pushes forward into uncharted territory, integrating pulsating 808s and a deep, immersive low-end that give it a gritty yet smooth texture. The futuristic vibe is further enhanced by ethereal synths and otherworldly effects, creating a soundscape that feels both grounded and other-dimensional.
Mvkamv, known for his unique ability to blend English with his native Hausa language, delivers a performance that is both authentic and reflective of his roots. Furthermore, his innovative approach to music production and his dynamic performances continue to push boundaries. With I Might, the young MC and producer effortlessly fuse genres, blending the old with the new to create a sound that is entirely his own. K.VV‘s verses add a compelling layer with his unique flow seamlessly riding the track’s complex rhythms, making this collaboration a powerful statement in modern Nigerian music.
“The process of making I Might‘ was incredibly organic after I took a trip to Kaduna, in the Northern state of the country. I was tapping into my roots and there was so much energy around that I felt like…F*ck it, let’s capture that mood! It took me 3 days to create I Might, from production to the lyrics, and it was a fun experience”, Mvkamv recalled.
