Abuja’s rap scene is witnessing a powerful transformation as 3PMF steps into a bold new chapter of his career. Fresh off the momentum of his previous work, the rapper has just released “THIS YEAR,” a track that serves as much as a street anthem as it does a personal manifesto. It is a song rooted in the present, blending a rugged confidence with a clear-eyed focus on what lies ahead.
The new single follows the successful reception of his 2025 comeback record, “EYEZ ON DE BENJI$,” which proved his international appeal by racking up tens of thousands of streams across Spotify and YouTube, particularly catching the ears of listeners in the UK and the US. This latest offering doubles down on that winning streak, swapping past reflections for a gritty, uncompromising declaration of intent.
Central to the track is the recurring mantra, “This year no be last year,” a line that functions as both a prophecy and a hard-earned truth. 3PMF channels a more seasoned and fearless energy here, leaning into the raw realism that defines authentic Hip-hop. The lyrics bridge the gap between aspiration and reality, framing the pursuit of success symbolized by lines about elevation and reward as the natural payoff for relentless hard work.
Drawing inspiration from legendary figures like 2Pac Shakur, 3PMF weaves themes of resilience and self-belief into the fabric of his music. The sound is unapologetically Hip-hop, echoing the drive and hustle synonymous with the rising stars of Abuja. With this release, he isn’t just returning to the airwaves; he is redefining his place in the industry.
As the buzz around the artist continues to grow, “THIS YEAR” stands as a testament to his evolution. It is a record that demands to be heard loudly, signaling that 3PMF is ready to claim a much larger space in the global music conversation.
