There’s something special about a return, especially when it’s as radiant as this. South Florida, let’s welcome back Adebayo Adiamo, affectionately known as 3A’s. A cultural chameleon with roots in Africa and wings that carried him through Spain’s academic and musical corridors, 3A’s is a multilingual marvel. With two master’s degrees tucked under his belt and a decade immersed in the rhythms of Europe, he crafts music that bridges continents and hearts.
Following his impressive showing with the title track “Honey Baby,” he returns with “My African Queen,” a glowing tribute to the essence, strength, and beauty of African women. This song isn’t just a serenade; it’s a celebration draped in vibrant sound and poetic sincerity.
From the very first beat, the production locks you into an Afrobeat groove that’s both familiar and fresh. The percussions pop like warm firecrackers under the sun, while the bassline dances with just the right amount of sway. The instrumentation is layered with care, never overcrowded, allowing each element to breathe and shine.
3A’s vocals glide with confidence, dipped in admiration and pride. His delivery is smooth and unhurried, letting each lyric land with intention. There’s a noticeable warmth in his tone, especially on the chorus, which bursts with genuine affection. It’s the kind of hook that invites you to sing along—even if you’re just hearing it for the first time.
But it’s the theme that truly crowns this track. “My African Queen” is about more than love; it’s about legacy, culture, and honoring the women who carry it all with grace. The song feels like a floral offering at the feet of heritage—an anthem of respect.
With “My African Queen,” 3A’s proves once again that his art isn’t just music—it’s a mission. Welcome back, King. We’re listening.
