Nigerian music heavyweight Timaya has teamed up with legendary singer-songwriter Duncan Mighty to deliver an exciting new collaboration titled “Kontrol.”
Officially released on July 10, 2026, the highly anticipated record reunites two of the South-South’s most influential voices for their first major collaboration in nearly a decade.
Built on an energetic Afrocentric foundation, “Kontrol” seamlessly blends modern Afrobeats with rich Highlife influences, creating a vibrant sound driven by lively percussion, melodic horn sections, and infectious guitar rhythms. Both artists bring their unmistakable vocal styles to the record, resulting in a feel-good anthem that celebrates their enduring chemistry and musical legacy.
The reunion is particularly special for longtime fans, as Timaya and Duncan Mighty previously delivered memorable collaborations such as “In Case You Never Know” and “iKnow iKnow Dat,” making “Kontrol” a nostalgic yet refreshing return to form. Released under DM Records Limited in partnership with ONErpm, the song captures the timeless appeal that has made both stars household names across Africa.
If you enjoy energetic Afrobeats infused with classic Highlife flavors and the unmistakable chemistry of two Nigerian music legends, “Kontrol” is a standout record that deserves a place on your playlist.
