It starts on the market road, where a hawker's tray is piled with agbalumo, the bright orange fruits stacked like small suns. She shows him how to eat one properly: roll it soft-soft between your palms, no rushing. When one tastes a little sour, she laughs and tells him that patience is the sweeter half. Together they chew the sticky part that turns to gum, talking with their mouths half full, and every seed they spit out shines like polished stone. To him her love is sweeter than that first bite. Then the seeds go home. She lines them up on the windowsill like little trophies of the two of them, saying she will use them to count their January. He already knows how this goes: by March the hawkers will vanish, and she will take it like a personal insult. So he promises to find the last basket in town, even if he has to drive all the way to Ibadan for it. The fruit is waiting on the plate, her thumb shines with juice, and she presses it against his cheek, laughing. The turn comes in one tiny gesture. She wraps a single seed inside a tissue and keeps it as evidence for next January. A season that was always going to end becomes a date they both plan to keep. "Season no dey last, na why e sweet" WHAT THIS SONG IS ABOUT This is a song about loving something because it does not last. The fruit comes once a year and then disappears, and instead of fearing that, the couple treat it as the reason it tastes so good. The feeling moves from playful sweetness to a tender worry about the season closing, then settles into warm, quiet confidence. Counting seeds becomes a way of counting time together, and keeping one back becomes a small vow that they will still be side by side when the hawkers return. WHO IT IS FOR Play it for slow mornings with someone you love, for a sunny drive, or for the first week of the new year when fresh fruit is back on the roadside. It fits anyone who enjoys pidgin english songs with a gentle groove, fans of nigerian afropop who prefer sweetness to club heat, and listeners looking for a nostalgic love song for a relaxed couples playlist. It also suits partners who keep little souvenirs of their story and anyone missing a season that has passed. ABOUT THE ALBUM This track is from Day Don Break, a sunlit collection of Nigerian stories told in Pidgin and English. Around it you will find a talking drum waking a whole family at sunrise, two lovers climbing to a hidden rooftop, a slow okada ride home and a moonlit beach party, all moving between tender romance and full dance-floor joy. Which season do you count with someone you love, and would you share it in a comment? ▶ Stream the album everywhere: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/rob...
