Rising Afro-gospel trailblazer Godfrey Gad is redefining mainstream sound with his breakout single “Tapasa,” cementing his place as the voice of the new Arewa-Afrobeats movement.
Fusing the rich linguistic heritage of Northern Nigeria with pulsating Afrobeats rhythms, Gad introduces a fresh sonic identity. “Tapasa” , a Hausa word meaning “to boil over, to burn, to break forth” has become an anthem of breakthrough.
The single has exploded into a social media phenomenon, dominating TikTok trends and powering electrifying live performances across the country.
“‘Tapasa’ is a declaration of inevitable breakthrough,” says Godfrey Gad. “We are taking the rhythms the world loves and infusing them with the heart and language of the North. Our sound belongs on the global stage.”
Now enjoying heavy rotation on Lagos mainstream radio and global diaspora playlists, “Tapasa” is bringing Northern cultural pride to the forefront of Africa’s music export.
“Tapasa” is now available on all streaming platforms worldwide.
