With a growing fanbase and a magnetic blend of spirituality and melody, rising Nigerian artist DjWhoshotit — also known as Don Corleone — is back with a new single titled “Mercy”, a powerful, introspective plea set to a soothing, melodic backdrop.
Rooted in calmness and clarity, Mercy is not your typical dancefloor banger. Instead, it’s a heartfelt message to the Creator — a quiet request for mercy, guidance, and good fortune. “It’s a melodic performance meant to invoke calmness and mental clarity,” DjWhoshotit explains, emphasizing the emotional core behind the track.
Born Olayinka Ekundayo and hailing from Southwest Nigeria, DjWhoshotit’s musical journey began in the church — where drums, harmonies, and raw gospel energy shaped his artistic DNA. Since then, he’s evolved into a versatile artist capable of navigating Afrobeat, R&B, rap, amapiano, and more. His 2024 debut EP, Long Time Coming, made waves across platforms, showcasing his commitment to storytelling and intentional songwriting.
Mercy stands as another step forward in that evolution: spiritual but accessible, grounded in life experience, and elevated by its lush instrumentation. It reflects the artist’s broader philosophy: that music should move people — emotionally, spiritually, and mentally.
With one foot in gospel and the other in the contemporary music scene, DjWhoshotit continues to walk the line between message and melody. And with Mercy, he invites listeners to pause, breathe, and connect — both with the music and with something higher.
