UK-based afropop sensation Dkizz introduces his new single/music video, “My Lady,” via Be83 Music. “My Lady” is the lead single from Dkizz’s forthcoming debut EP, Sabi Boy, slated to drop this summer.
Dkizz explains, “I wrote ‘My Lady’ last summer after I had just come out of a ‘situationship’ with someone that was pretending to be the best person I could have ever met. It was a hell of a ride, and we didn’t quite work out, but it showed me what I really want in a relationship, and that’s what birthed ‘My Lady.’ Godfather Beats and I went back and forth trying to find the proper sounds to bring out the emotions I was feeling at the time, as I wanted to write a soulful song that could be also played in the club. I’m just so happy that people are dancing to the song all over TikTok, even though it was inspired by one of my worst relationship experiences.”
Written and composed by Dkizz, with production from Godfather Beats and Rufus Production, “My Lady” is a dance floor filler driven by lush drum arrangements and organic piano chords that highlight the song’s amapiano and afrobeat elements. Underpinning the whole thing is Dkizz, with his smooth vocal delivery, and infectious melodies, as he waxes lyrical about his leading lady.
Hailing from Port Harcourt, and now traveling between Birmingham and London, Dkizz is following in the footsteps of legendary Port Harcourt artists like Burna Boy, Mr Eazi, and Omah Lay that have been instrumental in taking afrobeats across the globe in the past few years.
The accompanying music video is a lush visual affair that doesn’t just bring “My Lady” to life but reveals Dkizz’s onscreen presence.
Opening on a delicious, syncopated rhythm supporting the gorgeous amapiano flavors of a tender piano, “My Lady” drips with contagious sonic layers, lush and stylish. Dkizz’s deluxe voice, rich and expressive, evokes warm, quixotic aromas, imbuing the lyrics with sensuous, sumptuous timbres.
Dkizz has it going on! With “My Lady,” he blends a captivating afrobeat rhythm with swanky harmonics into a seductive earworm.
