Yemi Alade and Fave’s ballad “Worry” is holding strong several weeks after its release on 2 October 2025, with the single continuing to trend on Nigerian music streaming platforms and radio stations. The song has become more than just a release. It has turned into a vibe that listeners are returning to again and again.

Across platforms like Spotify Nigeria, Boomplay, and Apple Music, “Worry” remains in high rotation on curated Afrobeats playlists. Listeners praise the track’s soothing fusion of Afro-R&B and soul themes that contrast sharply with upbeat party tracks. The song’s emotional honesty, patience, and vulnerability are what many fans say make it resonate.
On radio, “Worry” is being requested often during evening and late-night shows. DJs comment that callers are drawn to the song’s lyrical content, especially lines about love that requires waiting, loyalty, and quiet strength. These elements are fueling its staying power long after the initial buzz.

Yemi Alade delivers familiar intensity on the track, yet this time she pulls back some of her usual energy in favour of raw emotional connection. Fave complements with her soft vocal textures, creating contrast that critics say reveals growth in both artists. Reviewers describe “Worry” as “a necessary safe space track” amid more bombastic songs dominating the charts.
Although “Worry” may not be topping every chart, its consistency in streams, radio airplay, and playlist placements show the single is far from fading. On Audiomack, for example, it has achieved tens of thousands of plays, steady likes, and playlist adds. These metrics suggest the song is finding deep engagement with listeners.
As for its impact, fans are sharing covers, interpretations, and reflections on social media, showing the song is not just being heard but felt. The fact that it’s still trending weeks after release speaks to its emotional weight and quality.
