Afri-tunes Wk 49 - "People (Did You Check On Me) By Libianca" Cover

I know it's been weeks since my last song presentation in this great community but I'm happy I'm here with one more. It's still a new week and I'm very expectant of this week being a great one as well for myself and you reading this. I'll be presenting a totally different song today, a song that didn't require my usual voice but I love the challenge.

The first time I came across this song, I couldn't help but relate so much with it after the many stories I've heard about people taking their own lives, people struggling so much within themselves with no one close to help them out of it. I'm hardly in such situations but I've had a brief experience of having no one remember I'm somewhere and finding it difficult to get past a stage in my life.

Depression!!!

That is what it gets to when people try to take care of everything themselves but end up getting overwhelmed by the difficulties and no one around to check on them and help them overcome.

Libianca must have experienced or witnessed the extent people have gone to when they are depressed, she tried to portray it in this song and I felt it like an obligation to sing this cover rather than just singing it as a presentation for this week. I feel I'm reminding myself and everyone who would read through the lyrics as they listen to go check on someone especially those who have been a long time they contacted.

Indeed, people don't know you until you tell them what you are feeling and that can't be done without those people asking you the simple question "How are you?" although many people don't say exactly what they are feeling when asked this question... Too bad!

"People (Did You Check On Me)" is sang by Libianca, a Cameroonian and afrobeats singer. This song isn't her first but it is the most popular from all her songs. She won a fan when I first listened to her voice on this song, so natural and deep... I wish I have that deep voice as well 🥲 but I tried to in this cover.

I do hope you enjoy the song and please let me know what you think about the song in the comment section, I'll be looking forward to it.
