Tuff King keeps his momentum rolling with “Waka Waka,” the fifth track lifted from his debut Black Sheepizen (EP), and it lands just before the project’s closing moment.
This 2-minute, 46-second cut arrived on June 30, 2024, as part of a seven-track body of work. Built around constant movement and the hustle for a better life, “Waka Waka” captures his determination to keep pushing despite distractions and negative energy. The song frames his journey as one of continuous motion, reflecting the realities of chasing success while navigating everyday street pressures.
The production leans into upbeat Afrobeats and street-pop, powered by driving percussion, a strong bassline, and repetitive rhythmic patterns.

It transforms the struggles at the heart of his music into an energetic soundtrack for movement and ambition.
