Afrobeats heavyweight Kizz Daniel has unveiled his much-anticipated new EP titled “Lemon Chase”, a deeply personal project that marks a new chapter in his musical journey.

“When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade out of it. I wanted this project to feel like real life—sweet, sour, confusing, beautiful.”

He described the EP as “music for your heart, for when you’re healing, or hoping, or remembering.”

His goal, he said, was to create something honest and authentic, capturing emotions that anyone can relate to.

From the opening track “Black Girl Magic”, which celebrates beauty and strength, to the closing song “Police”, featuring the soulful Johnny Drille and the legendary five-time Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo, the EP takes listeners on an emotional rollercoaster. Kizz Daniel’s storytelling is layered and rich, blending upbeat vibes with moments of introspection.

The EP boasts an impressive lineup of featured artists who each add a unique flavor to the project.

Rising stars like Bella Shmurda, Odumodu Blvck, and Zlatan bring raw, street-inspired energy, while the return of Fola, known for his earlier collaboration with Kizz Daniel on the hit single “Lost,” adds depth and emotion.

Behind the scenes, the production team is stacked with some of Afrobeats’ top names, including Reward Beatz, Blaise Beatz, Magic Sticks, Bando, and Ayzed.

Their collective work delivers a polished and dynamic soundscape that complements Kizz Daniel’s vocal versatility.

Reward Beatz led the production on standout tracks like “Eyo” and “Black Girl Magic,” while Blaise Beatz and Magic Sticks contributed to other fan favorites such as “Secure,” “Peace I Chose,” and “Titi.”
