The song’s theme of persistence in love is driven by Qing Madi’s youthful and soulful performance injecting African warmth into the mix.

Rising Nigerian singer, Qing Madi, joined R&B star, Keith Sweat, and Lil Wayne on the remix of remix of his Sweat’sl single “Working,” unfurling an intercontinental collaboration that bridges classic R&B, Hip-Hop star power, and the new wave of Afropop

Originally released earlier this year, “Working” found Sweat wrestling with the complexities of love, that delicate tug-of-war between desire and distance. Over a smooth, emotionally rich production, he narrates the story of a man who takes two steps forward while his lover retreats three steps back, laying bare the struggle of convincing someone that you’re the right fit for them.

The song’s theme of persistence in love resonated deeply, driven by Qing Madi’s youthful, soulful performance that injected African warmth into Sweat’s timeless vulnerability. With Lil Wayne stepping into the mix, the record evolves into something grander, a fusion of eras, genres, and emotions. Wayne’s verse brings a charismatic sharpness to the narrative, turning the record into a conversation between the unrelenting pursuit of love and the swagger of experience.
