Omah Lay just turned up the heat with his latest drop, “Waist,” and honestly, it’s everything we needed and a little more. Released on November 14, 2025, the track is his first solo single of the year, following collabs with Davido and Tems, serving as a teaer to his much anticipated album, Clarity of Mind.
Clocking in around two minutes, “Waist” is a smooth, minimal beat Afro-fusion groove that feels both intimate and dancefloor ready. Omah Lay leans into temptation, confessing how a woman’s curves—“ikebe”—throw him off balance, leading to “wrong decisions” with playful honesty. He even references Samson, flipping biblical vulnerability into modern sensuality.
It’s signature Omah Lay, emotionally raw yet effortlessly cool, backed by that addictive melodic hook we’ve come to crave. This release further cements his place as a leading voice in the Afrobeats export movement.
