Australian producer Kuda continues to break new ground in the music industry, showcasing his innovative approach to production with the release of his latest single, “Maria.” This vibrant Afrobeat/Afro-fusion track features the talents of Nigerian artist Boigizmo, who has been making waves in the African music scene.
“Maria” is the result of a unique collaboration that highlights Kuda’s versatility and Boigizmo’s artistry. The two artists connected after Kuda discovered Boigizmo through his track “Ifeoma,” a collaboration with Cupidszn and renowned producer Ozedikus Nweene, known for his work with artists like Rema (“Dumebi”) and Oxlade (“Ku Lo Sa”). Impressed by Boigizmo’s distinct sound and presence, Kuda reached out, and the two quickly joined forces to create something truly special.
The single, “Maria,” is a bright and loving ode to romance, where Boigizmo’s heartfelt lyrics explore his deep affection for a girl named Maria. Singing in a mix of Nigerian Pidgin, Boigizmo expresses his devotion, affectionately addressing Maria as “aunty” to convey respect and admiration. His smooth, engaging vocals are perfectly complemented by Kuda’s lively and rhythmic production, which blends traditional Afrobeat rhythms with modern electronic sounds, creating a rich, immersive listening experience.
“Maria” not only serves as a testament to the growing connection between African and Australian music but also showcases the creative synergy between Kuda and Boigizmo. Together, they have crafted a track that resonates with listeners across continents, highlighting the universal themes of love and affection.
As Kuda continues to explore new musical landscapes, his work remains a beacon of creativity and innovation in the industry. “Maria” is just the latest example of his ability to push boundaries and bring diverse sounds and stories to the forefront of the global music scene.
