Afro-pop stars Chiké and Mayorkun deliver a power anthem about unrequited love with “Boo of the Booless” fan favourite “If You No Love”.
In a world where masculine vulnerability is mocked, the duo wears their hearts on their sleeves, harmonizing, If you no love me, make you nor talk say you love me…”
Merging highlife guitars, African folk percussion, R&B rhythms, pop story-telling, and sensational vocals, “If You No Love” hits the bulls-eye as an instant African classic.

Speaking of the duet, Chiké commented on the song’s creation and inspiration saying: “I think love should be reciprocated but that’s not the case most times.
Sometimes, people find it hard to convey how they feel out of fear of rejection, vulnerability, while others pretend to be in love because of the benefits they gain by remaining in that situation and they end up hurting feelings.
This song addresses that and I believe that is why it resonates because it speaks to the heart and we have all being there whether it is a friend that does not meet us halfway or a spouse.”
Quotable Lyrics
If you no love me
Make you no talk say you love me oh
If you no need me oh
No go dey talk say you need me oh
I take this love oh seriously oh
Baby oh make you no play me oh
No go dey talk say you love me oh (no play me)
