Cash Rules Everything Around Us Lyrics by Pheelz

Blood money anthems rarely sound this breezy. On “Cash Rules Everything Around Us”, Pheelz turns the pursuit of wealth into a chant, layering playful Yoruba expressions over a hypnotic log-drum pulse as he celebrates money that arrives easy and leaves just as fast. The title nods to Wu-Tang Clan’s “C.R.E.A.M.”, and the song carries that same swagger into Afrobeats.

It arrived on October 16, 2026 as a standalone single with no featured artist, though Shay Lia lends background vocals. It followed a busy 2026 run for Pheelz that included the “I’M OK” single in May and the “A Rii Set” EP in June.

Pheelz, born Phillip Kayode Moses, has spent the decade as one of Nigeria’s most trusted producers before stepping fully into the spotlight as an artist, and records like this show why his instincts behind the board translate so well in front of it.

The song was produced by Pheelz himself, with co-production from Nelson Kyle.

Released on October 16, 2026, and subtitled C.R.E.A.U in a nod to Wu-Tang Clan’s “C.R.E.A.M.”, the song was produced by Pheelz with co-production from Nelson Kyle and written with Elijah Blake and Shanice Dileita Mohamed, with Shay Lia on background vocals. Through a repetitive, infectious chorus, playful Yoruba expressions, and rhythmic chants about money coming easily from different directions, the track captures a carefree, success-oriented mindset focused on attracting wealth, celebrating financial freedom, and enjoying the possibilities that come with having money.
