Nigerian-British Rapper DEELA Releases New Single ‘Why Always Me?’

Nigerian-British rapper DEELA has released his new single ‘Why Always Me?’ produced by Twitch Papii.

A bold, high-energy statement that offers a first glimpse into her forthcoming mixtape Wicked, set to drop this November. Built on a bouncy, club-ready production, the track spotlights DEELA’s razor-sharp lyricism and distinctive delivery, a global sound that cements her as one of the most exciting new voices breaking through right now.

With Wicked on the horizon, DEELA continues to prove her range both on and off the mic. September marked a standout month for the rising star — from attending London Fashion Week shows for Charlie Constantinou, AGRO, and Lueder, to running the Shoreditch 10K on behalf of Saucony. “Why Always Me?” captures that same spirit of ambition and individuality, embodying her drive to dominate in her own lane.

Speaking on the track, DEELA shared “It’s about dominating whatever I do in an unconventional way. I explored that with visuals that incorporate both sports and high fashion, doing it my way, which is the only way to win.”

As she strives towards a forthcoming project, ‘Why Always Me?’ is one step further towards a milestone moment for DEELA.
