“Nkonim Abotre”, a Twi word which translates as ‘crown of victory’ is a Hiplife track with a blend of modern Afrobeats sounds.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Pulse.com.gh, Lil Mo said the song’s concept is based on the struggles one goes through in the hands of his/her enemies just to wear the crown of victory.

When catechized about the uniqueness of his song despite the fact that there is a bunch of songs with a similar concept in the system, Lil Mo said the song gives hope to the poor and a shock to enemies.

“Mine talks about how someone whom one never expected to make it in life made it," he said.

Lil Mo continued: "Cast your mind back to villages. When a rich man is not around, matters won't be addressed.

Because of poverty, the old is rejected and disrespected by family."

"The motivation here is, the beginning of every legend starts with hardship.

"One who is never respected now have people boasting of knowing him or her way back.

"The song gives hope to the poor. It makes the rich man feels proud how he has swerved poverty to make it in life to shame their enemies," he said.

"It inspires the one who hasn't made it yet in life. It stresses on why one shouldn't envy one who is being hailed today as they don't know how they started."

“Nkonim Abotre” is expected to drop on Thursday, July 27.
