After sending shockwaves through the global music industry barely two months ago with his groundbreaking new partnership and joint venture with Mr Eazi’s innovative independent label emPawa Africa, and kickstarting an exciting new musical era with ‘Wayo’, which has already garnered over 15 million plays online, afrobeats icon and global music sensation Tekno is ready to go again with more exciting new music for the summer. Arriving today via Cartel Music and emPawa Africa, the award-winning Nigerian musician and producer is excited to unveil ‘GON GON’ and ‘NO FORGET’.
"Gon Gon," produced by Egar Boi (Yemi Alade, Zlatan, Erigga, Babyboy AV), is an
amapiano-infused banger where Tekno asks a special girl to be his one and only. The infectious beat and catchy lyrics are sure to make it a hit on the dance floor, and fans are already buzzing with excitement over its potential to become a summer anthem.
"No Forget," written by Jacob Hunter and produced by Louddaaa (Ayra Star, Simi, Crayon, and Lojay), is an R&B ballad where Tekno sings his heart out, promising undying love. This song showcases a more emotional and soulful side of Tekno, adding depth to his musical repertoire and offering a heartfelt performance that is bound to resonate with listeners.
These releases follow the success of Tekno’s hit single "Wayo" released in May and mark a new chapter in his career under his new partnership with empawa. This collaboration is expected to bring more diverse music to Tekno’s audience, exploring his writing and singing prowess.
"I’m excited to share these new tracks with my fans. 'Gon Gon' is all about fun and love, while 'No Forget' is more about deep emotional connection. I hope everyone enjoys these songs as much as I enjoyed creating them," said Tekno in a recent interview, expressing his enthusiasm for the new releases.
