AFROPOP INNOVATOR KRIZBEATZ DROPS ‘MENTALI’ WITH BELLA SHMURDA & BOJ
Krizbeatz returns with “Mentali,” a collaborative single featuring Bella Shmurda and BOJ that highlights his evolving artistry. Known as the “Drummer Boy” for his outstanding skills, Krizbeatz has spent years refining his sound, merging African influences with contemporary energy.
From early releases to acclaimed projects, his journey has been one of continual exploration and reinvention, now leading to this release, a song that moves and resonates with listeners.
“Mentali” exudes high-octane energy suited for the dance floors and private time. With Bella Shmurda’s evocative vocals and BOJ’s smooth hook, the song explores the effects of romance, capturing the emotional entanglement and mental strain within relationships. Krizbeatz, who recently released “Touch Me” featuring FAVE and Joshua Baraka, showcases his mastery in curating collaborations that consistently enhance his vision that feels familiar and refreshing.
“Mentali” merges joyful, danceable beats with lyrics, with phrases like “Omo iwo lo monu mi dun” (You make my heart sweet) and “Omo e wo lo mayo mi kun” (You fill my heart with joy) into its emotional core.
The production infuses Afrobeat influences, reminiscent of Fela Kuti’s percussion and horns, but reimagined with a modern feel with layered tones and backing vocals, creating a vibe.
Krizbeatz continues to evolve, building anticipation for his fourth project and third studio album.
