Two Nigerian rap heavyweights just made the classic party game into a masterpiece. Yung6ix and Vector have united on a new single called Never Have I Ever, released February 27, 2026, and the result is a lyrical clinic for hip-hop purists and wordplay nerds alike.

The track borrows its name from the social icebreaker game, but this is not casual fun. Instead, Yung6ix and Vector turn the phrase into a series of bold confessions and bravado lines that map out their growth, grind, and unshakable confidence in the rap game. Listeners of Nigerian hip-hop will recognize both artists as veterans: Yung6ix has been in action since the early 2010s, earning respect for his distinctive “Swagga” flow and career longevity.

Vector brings his reputation as one of Africa’s most intelligent lyricists to the table with sharp metaphors and pun-heavy bars that elevate the track beyond standard rap fare. Their chemistry is the real headline here. Instead of trying to outshine each other, the pair creates a synergy that feels both mature and dynamic, like two scholars trading verses in a cipher.

Production by CIQ underscores the strength of the lyrics. The beat is minimalist yet punchy, with dark synths and crisp snares that keep the focus on the words while still moving the body.

This is hip-hop that demands you listen. It is clever without being pretentious, and it slips into urban rotation without compromise. “Never Have I Ever” is a reminder that African hip-hop still has layers worth decoding.
