Baba Fryo said he got the inspiration for ‘Show Love’ from the increased killings and insecurities happening in the country, as well as the need for Nigerians to understand the power of love.

“I will be releasing my new single before the end of the year, I want to make Nigerians realise that we need to cultivate the habit of showing love to one another even with the cases of increased killings in the country,” he said.

“The situation in the country is terrible, we need to preach love more often, if the bandits and terrorists can show love, there would be no problem in the society.”

The singer described his kind of music to be a fusion of Afrobeats and Reggae music, Afro-reggae-beats.

He also said he was inspired by the late Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and Bob Marley who were known as freedom fighters.

The ‘Galala’ crooner has remained relevant in the music industry since 1990s.
