OLIVETHEBOY & QING MADI DELIVER A SOUL-STIRRING MASTERPIECE WITH ‘SURVIVOR’

Olivetheboy. The Ghanaian wonder who stormed the continent in 2023 with Goodsin, imprinting his sound upon the Ghanaian and Nigerian psyche with the ease of a maestro at work. Every drop since, like Asylum and Wonda Boy, has only sharpened his brilliance, proving that he’s not just another artist; he’s a force.

Now, he’s back. And this time, he’s brought along the angelic Qing Madi for Survivor, released on March 7, 2025. A song that feels less like music and more like an outpouring of the soul.

From the very first note, Survivor drags you into its world–a world that belongs to the lone wolf. A place where solitude is a badge of honor, where self-sufficiency isn’t just a choice but a way of life. Olivetheboy lays it bare: “I don’t need company yeah, I don’t need your company man, oh that’s right it works for me…” A confession. A declaration. A truth wrapped in melody. It’s the song of a man who has seen, time and time again, the horrible and brutal side of humanity; “No one’s ever been no good to me…” and so, he chooses himself. He chooses solitude.

The pre-chorus is a quiet defiance, a reaffirmation of his path and choice: “I stay, I stay on my own lane, don’t need your concern, I don’t need your concern no…”

Then comes the chorus, delivered with the kind of finality that leaves no room for doubt: “I’m my own survivor, I don’t lean on shoulder hmm, I want your nothing, from my head down to my toes.”

Just when you think the song has reached its emotional peak, Qing Madi glides in, her voice smooth, warm, yet edged with quiet steel: “Counting on, not counting on you, nobody else go connect my speaker…
Lean on you, no I can’t do, there is nothing that I can’t handle…”

Her voice drips like honey, but her words resonate with firm confidence in herself. If Olivetheboy sings of solitude as a necessity, Qing Madi makes it sound like a superpower. Together, they weave a sonic spell so enchanting, so piercing, that you almost forget to breathe.

And then there’s Beatz Vampire, the mastermind who stitched this soundscape together. The way he layers those melodies, the way he molds the rhythm into something haunting yet uplifting, it’s nothing short of wizardry. He doesn’t just produce beats; he crafts moods. He sculpts emotions. It’s layer upon layer of beautiful sounds that just create this surreal and serene atmosphere that is the perfect canvas for the sonorous voices of the soulful duo. It’s no wonder Olivetheboy has had such a long standing partnership with him. Their synergy is perfect. 

This isn’t just a song. It’s a moment. A masterpiece. The kind that lingers, that leaves an imprint on your soul long after the last note has faded. The music is outstanding and soulful, piercing straight into the very core of your soul as you listen. 

It’s a collaboration we never knew we needed but one that’s beyond amazing. If this is the level of magic Olivetheboy and Qing Madi can create together, then by all means, let’s have more.
