Reekado Banks and Phyno – My Woman

Published

on

Reekado Banks has teamed up with Phyno for My Woman, a love-inspired single off his 2025 album The Game Needs You. The track, released in July, is already drawing attention not just for its smooth sound but also for its engaging storyline in the official music video, which dropped in September.

Produced by Semzi and engineered by Syn X, My Woman runs a compact 2 minutes and 42 seconds. Reekado Banks pours out affection for a woman who, in his words, has turned him into “a new man.” His vocals ride easily over the mid-tempo beat, with a melodic hook that stays in your head after the first listen. Phyno steps in with a fiery verse delivered in Igbo and English, adding grit and cultural depth to the love narrative. The back and forth of melody and rap is what gives the track its weight. It is heartfelt but not one dimensional.

The music video, directed by Baba Millz, adds another layer to the story. It opens with a striking scene: a young woman stranded in the rain, trying to flag down a taxi. Reekado appears with an umbrella, only to be brushed aside. Their paths cross again at a bar, where he tries to start a conversation, but she remains cold. The persistence pays off when they meet at a lounge. This time, his charm works and she finally agrees to give him her number.

Phyno’s entrance flips the plot. He is seen with a woman identical to Reekado’s love interest, rapping confidently in Igbo and English. The video’s twist comes at a lively party scene, where Reekado spots Phyno with the look alike. Just as he is about to confront the situation, the real woman walks in. This reveals that Phyno’s companion is her twin, styled in the same outfit and hairstyle. The confusion resolves into a playful ending, cleverly tying back to the song’s theme of admiration and desire.

The visual narrative keeps viewers hooked from start to finish. The rain soaked opening, the dramatic bar rejection, the lounge reconciliation, and the twin reveal party scene all build into a story that feels cinematic without losing its lighthearted charm. The styling, editing, and pacing match the rhythm of the song. The video is more than just an accessory; it is a short film in its own right.

With My Woman, Reekado Banks reinforces his ability to craft love songs that speak directly to his audience. Phyno also proves once again that he can adapt his rap into any setting without losing his signature edge. Together, they have delivered not just a song but an experience that works on both speakers and screens.
