Independent Nigerian Afrobeats and Amapiano artist Berryhud is out with his latest single, Try Again, a motivational record that reflects his belief in persistence, self-confidence, and continuing to push forward despite difficult beginnings.
Born Arowosola Toba Victor, Berryhud has built his musical journey independently, developing a sound that brings together Afrobeats, Amapiano, Afro-pop, street-inspired melodies and contemporary R&B influences. His music is rooted in real-life experiences, with themes of ambition, faith, financial growth, love, struggle, and the pursuit of a better future often finding their way into his songwriting.
His story is just as much about determination as it is about music. Berryhud began making music at the age of 23, initially recording songs on his phone while teaching himself how to produce music and create beats. What started as a personal creative pursuit gradually developed into a full-time career.
Today, he operates as a self-managed artist and releases music through his independent label, Behood Movic. That independence has allowed Berryhud to develop his sound on his own terms while steadily building a catalogue that reflects his experiences and ambitions.
Try Again fits naturally into that journey. The song carries a message of refusing to stop when things do not work out the first time, encouraging listeners to keep moving, learn from setbacks, and make another attempt. Its Afrobeats foundation gives the motivational message an energetic musical backdrop rather than turning it into a heavy-handed lesson.
Berryhud’s catalogue already includes songs such as Money on My Mind featuring American singer T-Rell, Alubarika, Journey Not Funny, Imagine and Time. Across these releases, he continues to explore the realities of chasing success while balancing personal relationships, faith, and the challenges that come with the journey.
His collaborative work has also expanded his musical network, including a collaboration with Fabbly, while additional work involving Jaydot Gent is in development. These connections form part of Berryhud’s broader goal of using music to connect African audiences with listeners around the world.
With Try Again, Berryhud continues to represent the independent artist determined to build something from the ground up. His story is still unfolding, but each release adds another chapter to a journey driven by consistency, self-belief, and the willingness to keep going.
For Berryhud, the message remains simple: setbacks may slow the journey, but they do not have to bring it to an end. Sometimes, you simply have to Try Again.
