Nigerian Megastar Tekno Drops His DOPE New Visual to "Mufasa"
/Tekno returns after a brief hiatus armed with a newfound energy with his infectious new single and visuals. Following his latest critically acclaimed release “Skeletun’, from the official soundtrack of the “Coming 2 America” movie, Tekno defines himself as a sonic force of nature with “Mufasa”.
A bonafide cultural phenomenon, Tekno’s entrance into the scene in 2012 has seen him quietly build a colossal fan base (reaching a massive 8.9M on Instagram) thanks to a slew of non-stop bangers - starting with his breakthrough track “Duro” to his largest release “Pana” (over 70M streams and 171M views).
Despite an elusive media presence, Tekno has built up a legacy of exceptional collaborations with the likes of Drake, Beyoncé and Travis Scott, whilst Billie Eilish recently named his as her ”favourite artist ever” in an interview with Vanity Fair. A natural gift for hit-making has gained him many accolades, including two Headie nominees, a Bet Award nominee and an MTV Africa nominee — solidifying his place as a stable figure in the rapidly-growing African music scene.
With the release of “Mufasa” and the expectation of his forthcoming new project, Tekno continues to provide us with authentic, compelling sounds from Nigeria that continue to influence the very biggest stars in the world. Tekno’s new body of work looks set to define him as one of contemporary music’s true icons.
