about

"DÚKAMAKE" is an emotional journey that touches on grief, loss, and hope, bringing comfort and reassurance to the listeners. The song is a conversation between the living and the dead, bridging the gap between this world and the afterlife. The song bids farewell and offers words of encouragement to a soul embarking on its afterlife journey. With "DÚKAMAKE", Kuiyu cements his position as one of the most exciting artists in the African music scene who is able to cross genre boundaries through his fusioniSTAR approach to the sonic experience. .

"Making this song was a healing experience for me," says Kuiyu. "It allowed me to confront my grief and express my emotions in a way that felt meaningful and cathartic. I am also excited to showcase my Afro house sound side in this release, which I hope will appeal to a wider audience."
