A fresh wave of Afrobeat energy is sweeping across South African airwaves and beyond, as Nigerian artist Micle drops his latest single ‘KPO KPO DI’, a vibrant track that’s as irresistible as it is heartfelt.
Born from passion and perseverance, Micle’s journey into music began in the humblest of places, a church choir, where his soulful voice first took shape. But it was a tragic personal loss, the death of his late partner, that pushed him to fully embrace his calling as an artist. That emotional depth can be felt in every note of ‘KPO KPO DI’, a track that celebrates life’s pleasures and the joy of being authentically oneself.
After relocating to Lagos to pursue music seriously, Micle’s talent quickly caught attention. In 2022, he was recognized at the Africa Outstanding Music Art Of The Year awards, an early indication that his sound was something special. Since then, he has built a loyal fanbase with consistent releases that balance lyrical authenticity with danceable grooves — a formula that finds its peak expression in ‘KPO KPO DI’.
What makes this latest release stand out is its seamless fusion of modern Afrobeats energy with a soulful undertone that speaks to Micle’s roots. The beat is contagious, the lyrics catchy yet meaningful — an anthem for anyone finding freedom in the things they love. It’s this balance of vibrancy and vulnerability that gives Micle his unique voice in a crowded genre.
Already gaining heavy rotation on radio stations throughout South Africa and streaming widely across the continent, ‘KPO KPO DI’ isn’t just a song — it’s a statement. Micle represents a new generation of Nigerian artists redefining Afrobeat for global ears while staying true to cultural heritage.
With authenticity at the core of his sound and a personal story that resonates, Micle isn’t just riding the wave — he’s becoming the tide. If ‘KPO KPO DI’ is any indication, the future of Afrobeats has a new name at its forefront. And that name is Micle.
