One Day You Will Understand is the first EP by Nigerian singer Mr Eazi. Instead of being credited as a Mr Eazi release, it is credited to Mr Eazi and music company emPawa Africa. Released exclusively through emPawa Africa, the project features guest appearances from King Promise and C Natty. Production was handled by GuiltyBeatz, Blaq Jerzee, Nonso Amadi and Legendury Beatz. One Day You Will Understand serves as the follow-up to Life Is Eazi, Vol. 2 – Lagos to London (2018).
Background
In an interview with Apple Music, Mr Eazi reflected on the inspiration behind One Day You Will Understand. He shared that much of the project was shaped by the calm and peaceful environment of his home by the lake, where he spent his days surrounded by nature. Describing the creative process, Mr Eazi said, “I put this project together in the country, and my house is on the lake. Every day I would wake up and see the lake and walk around the property. Just that calm energy. The artwork, I took on my iPhone, when I was just relaxed. It was an expression of my surroundings.” Mr Eazi also outlined his ambitious release plans for the rest of the year, announcing that he would be putting out three additional projects, mixing solo and collaborative works, with influences ranging from Spanish music to dancehall. He emphasized his desire to release as much music as possible during this period.[2]
Singles
The EP's only single "I No Go Give Up On You" was released on 22 May 2020. The song was produced by Blaq Jerzee and its release coincided with its animated visualizer.[3]
Critical reception
Motolani Alake of Pulse Nigeria praised One Day You Will Understand for its romantic themes and songwriting, likening it to "words written down and placed in a time capsule" that evoke the innocence of teenage love. He rated the EP 7.5 out of 10, calling it "an amazing experience" with "very little flaws by thought or execution."[4]
Emmanuel Esomnofu, writing a review for NotJustOk described One Day You Will Understand as a concise four-track project that revisits Mr Eazi's recurring theme of romance, highlighting tracks like "Baby I'm Jealous" and "I No Go Give Up On You." He noted the EP's "warm" sound and its exploration of love, adding that it feels like "an appetizer" for more comprehensive future projects.[5]
