The allure of wealth and success often attracts superficial relationships, a theme that resonates throughout this collaborative afrobeats track. The artists explore the dynamic between financial status and romantic attention, suggesting that their partners are more interested in their money and lifestyle than genuine connection. The recurring "bling" motif symbolizes material wealth, while references to "banku" (a West African dish) being "sweet" metaphorically represents the appealing nature of their financial success. The lyrics switch between English and Nigerian Pidgin, conveying both pride in their achievements and skepticism about the authenticity of their relationships. While acknowledging the attraction they receive, the artists maintain awareness that much of this attention is driven by their status rather than genuine affection, creating a commentary on fame, wealth, and romantic relationships in modern society.
Bling
Lyrics
They like the boy 'cause he's shining
Too many girls when they sight me
They say, "I love you 'cause you're sexy" (sexy)

'Cause her coochie and her booty fit kill a man
That's why she no want to go, she want to stick around
But she still that she loves me 'cause I'm sexy
And I tell her that she lying, now she vexing
She be screaming, I be screaming, we be reckless
But I know that she be liking make up sex and

But na the street wey dey convo (but na the street wey dey convo)
