It appears that it is another Good Friday, as Afrobeats stars 1da Banton and Bella Shmurda collaborate on their latest release. They collaborated on two new singles, ‘Evidence’ and ‘Holy Man’.
Evidence, produced by the German group 255, is a calm, concise, mid-tempo track infused with mood-lifting vibrations that will raise your mood. It’s a laid-back song that exudes confidence and prosperity. From the first lyrics, “And evidence choke, evidence choke, and the boys dem know, boy dems know,” 1da Banton and Bella Shmurda demonstrate how rewarding it is to be at the top. The song highlights their hard-earned success and the opulent lifestyle that goes along with it. ‘Evidence’ is the ideal song for driving along the coast with the windows down, enjoying every ounce of the success you deserve.
In contrast, ‘Holy Man,’ produced by Haitian record producer and disc jockey Michael Brun, uses a slightly similar approach. Here, 1da Banton and Bella Shmurda jokingly disclose their human side, admitting that they are not saints, but rather ordinary men who like living the good life. The catchy beat and amusing lyrics generate an appealing energy that will have you dancing along.
Both tracks demonstrate the beauty of collaboration. Bella Shmurda and 1da Banton suited each other nicely. Their diverse styles blended beautifully, resulting in two lovely and refreshing sounds that may just be the break we need in an industry dominated by log drums and crowd vocals.
The two musicians’ connection is evident, and the ensuing music is nothing short of incredible. This double release is a breath of fresh air for Afrobeats enthusiasts. It will undoubtedly leave fans eager for further collaborations between these two powerhouses of creativity.
‘Evidence’ and ‘Holy Man’ are just the start of a lovely collaboration between 1da Banton and Bella Shmurda.
