With this latest track, Hassani continues his mission to redefine African R&B through emotional honesty, lush instrumentation, and lyrical depth. Moving Train is not just another love song—it’s a declaration of unshakable devotion delivered with poetic flair and sonic finesse.
Over a vibrant blend of soul, pop, and African rhythm, Hassani sings, “They can say love is a losing game, but I am still on a moving train to you,” offering listeners a metaphor-rich anthem of loyalty in the face of cynicism. The track’s central message is clear: true love stays the course, no matter the external noise.
Much like the trains that power through stations and stormy weather, Moving Train barrels forward with momentum and grace, reminding fans of the power of steadfast commitment. It’s an elegant engineering of sound and sentiment—a track that mirrors both Ric Hassani’s growth as an artist and his enduring identity as a voice for lovers who believe in fighting for what they feel.
Since his breakout with Gentleman, Ric Hassani has carved out a unique space in the Nigerian music scene. His songs Thunder Fire You and Only One have earned him accolades, chart success, and a fiercely loyal fanbase. With millions of listeners across streaming platforms, he continues to be celebrated for his ability to fuse Western R&B with distinctly African stories and rhythms.
Moving Train offers a powerful preview of what’s to come on Lagos Lover Boy, an album expected to delve deep into the layers of modern romance, heartbreak, hope, and vulnerability.
