November 11, 2024 – Lagos, Nigeria – Nigerian music icons Kizz Daniel and Adekunle Gold have teamed up for a much-anticipated new single titled “Pano Tona,” promising to be one of the biggest collaborations of the year. The upbeat Afrobeat anthem, which dropped earlier today, has already set social media abuzz and is quickly climbing streaming charts across the globe.
In the track, the two stars bring their signature styles together: Kizz Daniel’s smooth, infectious melodies complement Adekunle Gold’s evocative storytelling. The song features a catchy, danceable beat that blends traditional African sounds with contemporary pop influences, a trademark of both artists’ versatility.
“Pano Tona” is more than just another club banger. The chorus delivers an empowering message of self-reliance and ambition, as both Kizz Daniel and Adekunle Gold urge listeners to focus on their dreams and ignore distractions, especially in the face of critics. One particularly striking line in the song – “Leave Grammy, chase your dreams,” – has quickly become a standout lyric, sparking conversation among fans and industry insiders alike.
“Leave Grammy” is seen as a bold declaration from the artists, subtly addressing the often-overlooked value of homegrown success over international recognition. It’s a call to celebrate the local African music scene, irrespective of external validation.
In an exclusive chat with the press, Kizz Daniel shared, “We’re always chasing something bigger, but we need to recognize the power of our own platform and the community that supports us. ‘Pano Tona’ is about celebrating what we have right here, right now.”
Adekunle Gold echoed the sentiment, adding, “We love to see Nigerians, Africans in general, winning on the world stage, but let’s not forget the importance of supporting our own first. ‘Leave Grammy’ isn’t a jab—it’s a reminder that real success begins with our people.”
Fans were quick to praise the synergy between the two artists, who have both enjoyed international acclaim for their solo work. Kizz Daniel’s hits like “Buga” and “Cough” have taken over charts worldwide, while Adekunle Gold’s fusion of Afrobeat, pop, and soul has earned him a loyal global following.
As the song continues to garner attention, both Kizz Daniel and Adekunle Gold are poised to ride this wave to even greater heights in the music industry, while reinforcing the importance of valuing local success. Whether or not “Pano Tona” is a Grammy contender, the message is clear: the world may be watching, but African artists are here to set their own terms.
