Afrobeats superstar Kizz Daniel is back with a new EP titled Uncle K: Lemon Chase. This seven-track project is more than just a teaser for his upcoming album, Uncle K. It’s a deeply personal body of work that captures everything from love and loss to peace and a good time, which every listener can relate to.
Each track on the EP reflects a different piece of that emotional puzzle. From the opener, Black Girl Magic, to the last track on the EP, Police, which features Mavin’s Johnny Drille and five-time Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo, the Afrobeats sensation made sure to evoke several emotions through his music.
For the Lemon Chase EP, Kizz Daniel assembles a powerful lineup of well-known artists, each contributing their unique style. The soulful voices of Johnny Drille and Angelique Kidjo blend beautifully with the raw, street-inspired energy of Bella Shmurda, Odumodu Blvck, and Zlatan and Fola, who previously teamed up with Kizz Daniel on the hit singles “Lost” bring emotion and depth that perfectly complement his versatility. Together, they create a rich, dynamic sound that embodies the project’s spirit.
Production credits include Reward Beatz, Blaise Beatz, Magic Sticks, Bando, and Ayzed, who have all previously created chart-topping records with the artiste and are a testament to what’s to be expected from the EP. Reward Beatz produced Eyo and Black Girl Magic (alongside Bando and Blaise Beatz), Blaise Beatz led production on Secure and Peace I Chose, and Titi was produced by Magic Sticks and co-produced by Reward Beatz, and Blaise Beatz while Al Jannah was shaped by Ayzed’s touch.
On the EP, Kizz Daniel says, “When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade out of it. I wanted this project to feel like real life: sweet, sour, confusing, beautiful. This is music for your heart, for when you’re healing, or hoping, or remembering. I just wanted it to be honest, authentic and true to self.”
With Uncle K: Lemon Chase, Kizz Daniel continues to grow, not just as a hitmaker, but as a storyteller unafraid to touch uncomfortable spots. The EP sets the tone for Uncle K and reminds us that the name Kizz Daniel will always be remembered.
