MoYah and Don Jaga spark global vibes with "Tabonga"

On his new single, "Tabonga", the Portuguese singer, born in Mozambique and raised in Lisbon, and now based in the UK, gives listeners a joyous testimony of strength, community, and the power of saying thank you. With assistance from Angolan singer Don Jaga, MoYah crafts a record that is both a personal statement and universally relatable. The Afro-fusion wave continues to swell around the world, but MoYah and Don Jaga are evidence here that it's not just about sound, but it's about spirit.

"Tabonga" grabs you by the hand with its pulsating Afro-fusion heartbeat and a beat that mixes global rhythms with gritty lyricism. MoYah's verses infuse the track with the grit of rap, establishing it in realism, while Don Jaga's melodic lines elevate it with a soulful warmth. And the tension between hardness and softness is where this album really shines.

The multi-platinum Anas Rahmoune, who has worked with 6ix9ine and AP Dhillon, lends the track its irresistible punch, with the Grammy-winning engineer Dukus Stormzy, Wizkid, Ed Sheeran, and Craig David. Making sure everything lands with world-class precision. The result is a song that feels as comfortable on festival stages as it does in the late-night headphones.

"Tabonga" is a call to stop and say thank you, even if life has been tough. On the song, MoYah pours his own experiences into a vessel that invites listeners into a ritual room to reflect, rejoice, and connect. Amid a world that doesn't always say thank you, "Tabonga" takes its place as an anthem that underscores just how potent it can be to give thanks and to dance while throwing glitter on top of it.
