Qing Madi teases new song in collab with Riot, VALORANT

The Nigerian singer and songwriter Qing Madi teased a new song in collaboration with Riot Games for VALORANT. With a new track called "Ego", it is suspected this might be a representation of Phoenix's sister music, which has recently been in the spotlight of the lore fans.

A few days ago, VALORANT shared an image featuring Phoenix and his sister, Mary Adeyemi, with the caption "For redemption" and a release date of June 2 for the upcoming soundtrack. Shortly after, Qing Madi posted a preview of the song on her Instagram with the message, "I'm back." All signs point to an emotional track that explores the journey of redemption, likely reflecting on past events and personal growth.

Family can be one of the greatest parts of life, but sometimes, things fall apart. That’s what happened with Phoenix and his sister, Mary, who lost touch over the years. In recent updates, however, we’ve seen Phoenix trying to rebuild that connection. Mary, a gifted singer and songwriter, has been subtly referenced in-game, with her concert posters appearing in various cinematics.

Now, she’s back in the spotlight, offering a deeper look into Phoenix’s life before he became an agent. Riot Games recently released a behind-the-scenes video discussing their goal to reveal more about Phoenix’s past, and how Mary might hold the key to his current struggles. While there are no current plans for Mary to become a playable character, her presence adds emotional depth to the story, especially for fans invested in the game’s lore.

We are very excited to listen to the new VALORANT song "Ego" by Qing Madi on June 2. That's all for now. Stick around for more VALORANT news, guides, and updates on esports.gg.
