Nnashe continued to raise his stocks, continuously releasing some of the most awe-inspiring Soul music in the Mzansi music scene.

The gifted vocalist teamed up with the talented S-Que, dropping their newest love anthem, “Dreams+fantasies”, telling a relatable tale of the hopes of being in a relationship without being fooled into nothingness.

The track kicked off with Nnashe expressing his mind, constantly thinking about a hopeful lover. However, he shared his struggles with the seriousness of the situation, breaking into the track's chorus, urging his lover not to sell him dreams and fantasies (hence the title).

S-Que hopped onto the smooth instrumentals, expanding on the emotional state one experiences when having the same situation as Nnashe and his constant wonderings about his position in a relationship. This was our first encounter with S-Que, and his level of wordplay and poetry was a bliss to listen to, showcasing how brilliant of a lyricist he is.

This was a lovely collaboration from the two virtuosos, combining their unique gifts over a sultry instrumental, having us reminisce on these tougher times of being in a relationship.

If you’ve peeped this track and enjoyed it, we highly recommend listening to Nnashe’s “Intostella” EP that was released earlier this year. That was a project we heavily messed with, showcasing how brilliant of a vocalist he is, and it even landed him on our Top 50 Projects of 2024 so far.
