A Stark and Stripped-Back Mr Eazi Delivers His Most Honest Song in “Violence”

Nigerian superstar Mr Eazi has released the poignant and introspective single “Violence,” the final preview of his highly anticipated EP ‘Maison Rouge,’ out October 29. Produced by P.Priime and Ekelly, the track is a stark, haunting exploration of emotional conflict and the quiet fractures that form within fading relationships.

In “Violence,” Mr Eazi delivers one of his most vulnerable performances yet, using stripped-back vocals and deliberate silence to convey the weight of unspoken tension. The song moves away from the brighter tones of previous singles like “Love Me Now” and “Casanova,” delving instead into the subtle, bruising dynamics of love grown distant.

The accompanying visual, directed by Ademola Falomo, mirrors this emotional depth—transforming a domestic setting into a powerful metaphor for intimacy and loss. As Mr Eazi explains, the song tackles the unseen violence of “silence, distance, and emotional cut-offs,” offering a raw and honest close to the ‘Maison Rouge’ rollout.
