In a recent Instagram post, Alaba shared an intimate video featuring Young Jonn, accompanied by a caption that delved into their past relationship:
“A trip down memory lane … OMN was made out of pure love. I’ve never been this open on social media before. We were each other’s first love. I feel like we were still babies when we met, I still had my braces and sh*t lmao.
‘But what I’m trying to say is that this song should represent pure love only. It’s not just a feature – it’s a song that holds a special place in my heart, cause of the special person I did it with cornyy IKR.”
The accompanying video showcases the duo in intimate settings, exchanging subtle kisses and cuddling, further fueling speculation about their past and current relationship status.
“OMN” is part of Alaba’s recently released eight-track playlist titled “ROZEY,” which features a blend of Afro-pop rhythms and contemporary melodies.
The track stands out as a smooth-sounding collaboration that highlights the synergy between Alaba’s soulful vocals and Young Jonn’s inventive production style.
