Libianca - “People (Check On Me)” Music Video

Cameroonian-American female singer-songwriter, Libianca Kenzonkinboum Fonji, better known by her stage name, Libianca, has released the official visuals to her viral single, “People (Check On Me).”

The music video, directed by Ceo Jay (Ceo Jay Production), premiered on YouTube (Jan 19, 2023) and is available below.

The 22-year-old veteran of The Voice began singing at age 6 and started writing songs between the ages of 10, and 11. She got involved in choir, and pretty much anything music-related in school. Libianca then signed a local record deal when she was 15 or 16 for about a year, and dropped an EP when she turned 16 years old.

“People (Check On Me)” has received over 50 million streams on music distribution platforms following its release, and according to the AfroSoul star, she recorded the song “People (Check On Me)” during a time when her mental health was deteriorating.

"So I have Cyclothymia, which it’s a mood disorder. So you have your highs and you have your lows. It’s not necessarily manic, it’s not too severe, but the lows just suck. So I was going through that at the time. And I was just like, I don’t know how much of this I can take. It’s getting ridiculous. I was really struggling. Depressive symptoms, harmful thoughts, just trying to push myself through.

...I was hosting a Friendsgiving at my house, eventually, I was like…I wasn’t feeling the vibes. I went to the bathroom, I cried, tried to pull myself together, and then I came back downstairs. And everyone’s like, “Oh, Libby, you want to take a shot of this Casa?” ...I noticed that I was drinking way more than I usually do. I never felt anything that I didn’t like. I was feeling just jolly, and so I just kept drinking more. So after I took that shot downstairs, I was like, all right, I got to go. So I just left. No one noticed that I left,” Libianca explained.

“...I went upstairs to one of the studios and I was like, I have to record something because it’s been two days since I’ve posted on social media and I need to get some content done. ...I just want to just sit here, sit in my room, and cry and just cry all night. So I sat and I started looking for beats. I went on YouTube, and that’s when I found the instrumental by Mage the Producer. And I was like, hmm, something about this is hitting. I’m just filling this, so let’s see what comes out. And I transported it into Logic and I just started recording. I closed my eyes and it just came out really. I didn’t necessarily write it. It was exactly how I was feeling,” she added.

Libianca's goal is to keep making music that helps people heal and discover themselves, and also not be ashamed of being themselves. "So as long as I do that this year, I’m all right."
