Owo Oluwa
Afrobeat legend Kizz Daniel is back with new single 'Owo Oluwa' with fellow afrobeat royalty Young Jonn, KrizBeatz and Wave Choir.
With 4.4 million monthly Spotify listeners and more than four billion career streams, Kizz Daniel has plenty to celebrate. His catalogue includes Buga, Cough (Odo), Showa, Rich Till I Die, Twe Twe and Police, alongside collaborations with Naira Marley, Davido, Adekunle Gold, Seyi Vibez, Bella Shmurda, BNXN, Young Jonn + more. Young Jonn, meanwhile, brings 4.7 million monthly Spotify listeners and a heavyweight list of collaborations spanning Ayra Starr, Rema, Asake, Wizkid, Olamide, Tiwa Savage, Sean Paul, King Promise, Joeboy +more!
Translating to “God’s Hand” in Yoruba, the track blends gospel inspired Afropop, warm melodies and uplifting choral harmonies as Kizz Daniel reflects on faith, perseverance and how far he has travelled. Produced by KrizBeatz, whose credits include Davido, Tiwa Savage and Popcaan, Owo Oluwa feels celebratory without losing its personal touch. Kizz Daniel sings about peace, joy and finally being able to enjoy the fruits of his journey, while the repeated “Owo Oluwa nbe” refrain gives the track a chant like quality that is easy to latch onto. Young Jonn adds his own distinctive energy, with Wave Choir providing the heavenly backdrop.
The song also carries a message beyond personal success, encouraging listeners to recognise their blessings and share them with others. Its accompanying video, starring Asherkine, brings that idea to life through acts of generosity. Owo Oluwa opens the door to Kizz Daniel’s upcoming Radio Gidi project, and if this is the first taste, there is plenty more to look forward to.
