Nigeria-born, Canada-based singer, Stanley, is currently riding on the waves of his melodious new song, Twisted, which is on his latest album, Resurrection.

The song, Twisted, is reminiscent of Canadian superstar singer, The Weeknd’s summer releases, bringing forth images of summer flings ending too soon.

Speaking about his new jam, the pop star said, “Twisted tells a story about how in the midst of all I was going through, I had a girl that loved me regardless — but I never wanted her the same way she wanted me.

“She did all she could do to let me know she cared for me, but I never saw the value in her. So, she decided to move on and I instantly regretted losing her; it made me see what I was missing.

“This destroyed my ego… for the better… My ego always told me she should never get it ‘Twisted’; that she will always love me.”

The song’s production features punchy synth grooves coupled with well-timed guitar samples that make a guest appearance in the chorus.

While these layers of production seem innocent at face value, each instrument throughout the mix plays a role in the mindset that comes with feeling all-worthy of a loved one’s embrace.

The singer who had always been into music since his childhood days moved from Nigeria to Canada to further his education, however, he never abandoned his first love, music.

In addition to his hundreds of thousands of streams across Spotify alone, Stanley is also known for his entrepreneurial spirit and an unlimited supply of ideas and wit.

Priding himself on never being boxed in, he works endlessly to leave his musical impact on the world.

“Life is all about perspective. How you view it becomes your reality,” the singer said.
