The rapper had teased before that he will be releasing the song months after Anele was laid to rest. But AKA decided to release it on her birthday, which is today, the 11th.
The lyrics speak about an ailing rapper who finds it hard to wake up without his bae by his side. He reveals that he dreams about her and when he feels the urge to cry, his tears always run dry.

He spoiled Kairo to his fullest, but the thought of Nelli made him very emotional.
AKA had to relive this memory of Anele during an interview with Thando Thabethe. After he and Costa Titch released their joint EP, they were out promoting it. But to his surprise Thando Thabethe had to ask about Anele and he did not appreciate that.
Thando wanted to discuss the ‘elephant in the room’ and she did not beat around the bush:
“We have to speak about the elephant in the room…you had a sit down with one of our own Thembekile Mrototo a lot of people felt like you said nothing in the interview,” she asked. AKA said “so” and shook his head.
“Do you feel a need to say anything about the incident that happened?” asked Thando, but AKA told her it is not an incident to him but it is his reality. “You wanna call it an incident this is my life bro. To you it’s an incident,” he said.
“Speak to us about the experience,” said Thando, then AKA said he does not want to. “Is it something that you are never gonna answer?” asked Thando and then AKA said it is none of her business, in fact it is none of anyone’s business.
“It’s nobody’s business but my own. It is something that I am living with in my life, it’s none of your business,” he said. At the end of the interview, Thando gave AKA the middle finger, but high-fived it out and laughed.
