Singer, songwriter and producer AnEndlessOcean has concluded the Canadian segment of his sold-out global Octagon Tour with the release of a compelling new single, “Blind.” The track, which emphasizes unconditional trust and surrender, serves as the final musical statement connected to the North American leg of the extensive tour, which has also spanned West Africa and the UK.
Born Ayobami Alli Hakeem, the artist’s musical journey has always been a reflection of his spiritual one. Moving between faiths before finding a firm grounding in Christianity, his art is shaped by a quest for truth. This deep-seated belief system is the source of his stage name, AnEndlessOcean: “endless” symbolizing God’s infinity, and “ocean” representing divine depth and reach.
“Blind” captures the core message he has carried throughout the Octagon Tour: the choice to be led not by sight, but by conviction. The song’s lyrics are an intimate declaration of resolve. When AnEndlessOcean sings, “Bend my head and my knees / Holding you deep in my chest,” it conveys a complete and personal surrender. Lines like “You’re the pinnacle… the very core of my existence” resonate with a profound, unvarnished honesty.
Musically, the track builds a dynamic sense of shared experience. Uplifting, uptempo percussion drives the song forward, while the layered, harmonizing vocals in the chorus evoke the feeling of a congregation or a massive audience answering a prayer. This powerful, call-and-response echo builds a palpable sense of communal surrender, mirroring the energy of his sold-out live shows.
With “Blind,” AnEndlessOcean encourages listeners to embrace a faith that needs no external reason, marking a powerful conclusion to his Canadian run as he continues his global musical mission.
