Ckay talks staying authentic while exploring sci-fi inspiration – Debola Abimbolu 

CKay fancies himself a lover-boy with songs typically themed around love, heartbreak and sex. Fortunately, he can also switch it up and make upbeat, party songs such as “Container”, a playful party-driven song which celebrates living lavish.
