August Chuks, a rising star, just released a new Afrobeats single, “Answer,” on Win Records, a song that takes heartbreak and turns it into a rhythmic plea of love and loss, struggle and the difficulty in forgetting.
Written in about an hour, “Answer” is raw, honest, and undeniably relatable. Inspired by Chuks’s discovery of his ex’s two-timing ways, the song captures the emotional push and pull of wanting to hold on while knowing you need to let go. The storytelling is vivid and the emotions unfiltered, but the beat makes you want to move, evidence that even heartache can have a groove.
“Answer” perfectly combines soulful melodies and rhythmic energy produced by Madjay, which was recorded at Win Studio. Chuks’ voice floats effortlessly over a guitar sample of his creation, giving an organic element to the song’s polished production. His delivery is slick but laced with the ache of betrayal. Every lyric feels like a peek into his pilgrimage.
“Answer” is unique because it balances vulnerability and musicality. It’s a song to dance to, but it’s also a thinking person’s song, an intellectual song about love, loyalty, and those times that change everything.
