Joy Oladokun is celebrating her signing to Concord Records with the new single “Nothing Comes Easy.” Watch the track’s music video, in which she gets a tattoo to honor the song’s meaning, below.

“a year ago, i was scared that i’d never release music again,” Oladokun shared on her Substack ahead of the track’s release. “i feel grateful for a new beginning and grateful to anyone who has supported me along the way.”

She elaborated in a press statement, saying, “This past year, I dealt with a lot of change in my personal life and career and for a moment it felt like nothing good would ever come again. In my backyard, there is a planter filled with the most resilient sunflowers I’ve ever seen. I wrote this song about watching them find life over and over again and how they taught me to celebrate good things because oftentimes they have fought hard to be good.”
