Nigerian disc jockey and music producer DJ Tunez, born Michael Adeyinka, has made a powerful return to the music scene with his latest single, “State of Mind,” featuring global Afrobeats sensation Wizkid. Released over the weekend, the track is now available on major streaming platforms and has already begun gaining traction among fans both in Nigeria and abroad. The collaboration marks another milestone in the long-standing creative partnership between the two artists, reaffirming their status as key players in the Afrobeats genre.
“State of Mind” immediately captures attention with its smooth, laid-back groove that’s perfect for late-night listening or relaxed moments. The production blends Afrofusion elements with subtle electronic textures, creating a soft yet rhythmic soundscape. Laid-back percussion, airy synth layers, and a steady, unhurried pulse define the track’s mood, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the vibe. Wizkid’s signature melodic flow glides effortlessly over the beat, delivering his signature calm and emotive delivery that fans have come to love.
DJ Tunez’s role as producer is equally vital, crafting a clean and polished sonic environment that enhances the emotional depth of the song. His ability to balance minimalism with impact shines through in this release, showcasing his growth as a producer and his deep understanding of Wizkid’s artistic style. The duo’s chemistry, built over years of collaboration, is evident in every note and lyric.
Their creative journey began in 2015 when DJ Tunez joined Wizkid’s team as the official touring DJ and frequent collaborator. Since then, they have delivered a string of fan-favorite tracks, including “Gbese,” “Cool Me Down,” “Caution,” “Turn Up,” “Pami,” and “One Condition.” Each of these songs has contributed to their reputation for creating timeless, emotionally resonant music that transcends borders.
With “State of Mind,” they continue to prove that their partnership remains one of the most consistent and impactful in Nigerian music. The track is not just a musical release—it’s a statement of enduring artistry and mutual respect. As Afrobeats continues to grow globally, collaborations like this reinforce Nigeria’s influence in shaping the sound of contemporary African music.
Listeners can stream “State of Mind” on Spotify and other platforms, where its soothing rhythm and melodic appeal are already earning repeat plays. The release serves as a reminder that when DJ Tunez and Wizkid come together, the result is often effortless, timeless, and instantly replayable. This collaboration is likely to further solidify their legacy in the evolving landscape of Afrobeats.
