Tega Boi DC keeps his run moving as he calls on ZerryDL and Rord Kelly for “Alhamdulillah.”
The song sits second on the three-track project, right after “eyes & soul,” so the mood shifts from heartbreak to gratitude in one step. Boywithmagic handled the production. The title itself is an Arabic phrase of thanks, often rendered as “praise be to God,” and that sets the tone.
The blend works because the voices come from different places. Tega Boi DC sings in melodic Afrosounds, while ZerryDL and Rord Kelly carry rap from Nigeria’s indigenous scene. The singer takes the hook, and the rappers punch between the lines.
There is history here too. ZerryDL and Tega Boi DC already linked on the 2024 EP “Grooves and Moves,” so the reunion feels easy. ZerryDL’s “Back to Back” also became a hit this year, while Rord Kelly has stayed busy with “Mmili (Remix)” and his own “Ser Feliz.”
The record also extends the shared direction that followed Tega Boi DC’s move into the Plutomania collective. Earlier tracks like “Roll” and “Child’s Play” built his name, yet this team-up pushes him toward a wider audience.
