Nigerian singer, songwriter, and record producer Young Jonn turns a family name into a global mantra. His new single, “Elumelu,” dropped on May 29, 2026, via Chocolate City Music with exclusive distribution by Warner Music Africa. The track runs two minutes. It was produced by Ragee, the beatmaker known for his work on Young Jonn’s catalog of street-pop and Afropop hits. An official music video, directed and filmed in Lagos, premiered on YouTube at 3:00 PM West African Time on the same day. The visual leans into the song’s theme of wealth, featuring Young Jonn counting stacks of money in a neon-lit room and dancing with a group of friends.

The song is a declaration of ambition, deliberately named after Tony Elumelu, the Nigerian billionaire industrialist and philanthropist who chairs Heirs Holdings. Young Jonn raps, “I dey carry my body like Elumelu, show me what God cannot do.” The line functions as both a boast and a testament. It turns a specific person into a universal symbol of success, someone who proves that financial prosperity is attainable. The production rides on bouncy drum patterns, groovy basslines, and infectious melodic hooks, the kind of energetic Afro-fusion instrumental built for both the club and the commute.
“Elumelu” marks Young Jonn’s first solo release of the year following the success of his sophomore album “Blue Disco.” That project amassed over 260 million global streams across DSPs and arrived after his string of viral hits including “Dada,” “Xtra Cool,” and “Big Big Things.” Young Jonn began his career as one of Nigeria’s most in-demand producers, lacing hits for Olamide, Davido, Tiwa Savage, and Lil Kesh. He learned drums and keyboard in a church in Ibadan, where he was born John Saviours Udomboso on February 16, 1995. Now, as a solo artist, he has found a second gear, turning street credibility into chart dominance.
