Kizz Daniel Celebrates Decade In Music With New Singles ‘Marhaba’ And ‘We Must’

Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Kizz Daniel continues his milestone celebration of 10 years in the music industry with the release of two highly anticipated singles, Marhaba and We Must. These tracks are part of the festivities surrounding his ‘Vado At 10’ anniversary, which honors a decade of chart-topping hits and widespread acclaim.

Exploring New Sounds With Marhaba

Marhaba, produced by the talented duo Ramii and Suhel Nafar, showcases Kizz Daniel’s distinctive style infused with fresh, innovative beats that blend Afrobeats with influences from Northern African traditional music. The title, which means “Welcome” in Arabic, reflects Kizz Daniel’s experiences during his travels in the region, serving as an inspiration for the song. This track not only highlights his ability to transcend cultural boundaries but also his commitment to enriching the Afrobeats genre with global influences, making his music accessible and relatable to diverse audiences.

An Anthem Of Resilience: We Must

Meanwhile, We Must, produced by the acclaimed Ayzed, promises to resonate as a powerful anthem of resilience and determination. With its infectious rhythm and inspiring lyrics, this song captures the essence of Kizz Daniel’s journey over the past decade. Initially intended as a collaboration with a prominent UK rapper to introduce a gritty grime vibe, unforeseen delays led Kizz Daniel to take the reins himself. He transformed the track into a solo effort, crediting it as ‘We Must – Kizz Daniel featuring Thyself,’ a testament to his artistic versatility and creative vision.

These new releases further solidify Kizz Daniel’s status as one of Afrobeats’ most influential figures, enhancing his already impressive catalog. Both singles reflect his ability to evolve while remaining true to his signature sound, showcasing his dedication to pushing creative boundaries.

A Legacy Of Success

Since bursting onto the scene with his breakout single Woju in 2014, Kizz Daniel has consistently led the charge in Afrobeats. His debut album, New Era, was awarded Album of the Year at The Headies in 2016, and his sophomore album, No Bad Songz, topped the iTunes World Album Chart shortly after release. Over the years, he has released several critically acclaimed projects, including King Of Love, Barnabas, Maverick, and TZA, featuring hits like Boys Are Bad and Lie.

With over four billion streams, multiple sold-out tours across Africa, North America, and Europe, and a dedicated following of over 25 million on social media, Kizz Daniel epitomizes the essence of an all-around entertainer. His magnetic voice, captivating lyrics, and infectious stage presence have made him a leading figure in representing Afrobeats on the global stage.

Following a remarkable 2022 that saw him crowned the most streamed artist in Africa and perform at the World Cup opening ceremony, 2023 has been even more monumental for Kizz Daniel. He has celebrated the success of his fourth studio album, Maverick, headlined at the Essence Festival, and collaborated with global artists.
