| Aina More Drops "The Set" A Bold Coming Out Anthem Drenched in Sensuality, and Street PowerBy: OTHERSIDE NATION provocative new single, "The Set." Blending street swagger with unapologetic sexuality, this fierce, high-octane release is a manifesto for the bold and a declaration from More herself. Written and recorded in the kinetic pulse of Lagos, the song pulls no punches. It's a soundtrack for the mandem, the gyaldem, the outsiders, the bad bitches - the set. Ms More's music has received positive peer reviews from BBC Radio 1, and high acclaim from Austin Daboh. Aina More has been featured on the BRIT Award compilation album.

"The Set" Produced by underground heavyweight LOL, is a slick fusion of industrial drums and hypnotic rhythms, a sonic playground where Aina's confident delivery glides, growls, and asserts. The sound is elevated by Masterkraft, one of Nigeria's most acclaimed producers known for shaping Afrobeat into global hits, and Benie Mccaulay, founder of the Atmos Room, an engineer whose mixing finesse injects space & clarity into every line. But "The Set" isn't just about the beat, it's about voice. And Aina's is LOUD. Sexy. Queer. Braggadocious. Her lyrics flirt with taboo, ride the edge of seduction, and celebrate unbothered feminine energy. She smokes. She talks her shit. She's in charge. And most importantly, she's finally speaking her full truth. Listen to the SET here - https://linktr.ee/ "This track is me stepping into my own," Aina says. "It's a coming out. It's freedom. It's Lagos nights and London grit. I'm claiming space for myself and for others who've been told to shrink." "The Set" leads the charge toward More's anticipated debut EP, Fresh Home, set to drop in 2026 a project that fuses global street culture, feminine power, and unfiltered realness into a genre-defying body of work.
