About This Release
Closing out 2025 with groove, colour, and celebration, ‘Money Power’ sees long-time collaborators Da Africa Deep and Lyrik Shoxen reunite for an uplifting West African-inspired anthem. Having first worked together in 2019 on standout tracks like ‘Humans’ and ‘Lala’, the duo return to Sondela Recordings on familiar yet evolved form — following Da Africa Deep’s contribution ‘Burning Bright’ on Sondela Sampler Vol.3 and Lyrik Shoxen’s heartfelt single ‘Be Strong’.
Based in Johannesburg, Da Africa Deep remains a pillar of the Afro House scene, known for his timeless original productions & remixes. Here, he blends rich, jazz-inspired instrumentation with modern club energy, echoing the revolutionary spirit of Fela Kuti while pushing his signature sound forward. Lyrik’s vocals bring storytelling to the forefront — a reflection of youth, freedom, and self-expression, reminding listeners to live joyfully and independently.
The Club Mix takes a darker, late-night turn while keeping the groove alive, creating a dual experience between soulful warmth and dancefloor intensity. Together, ‘Money Power’ celebrates independence, rhythm, and the joy of being unapologetically yourself. A fitting finale to a year of powerful music and growth.
