Musician and entrepreneur Mr Eazi has released “Comfort”, a single and accompanying video featuring Ghanaian singer Moliy, according to a press statement dated October 2, 2026. Recorded in London during the summer, the track adds to his 2026 catalogue and updates the Banku Music sound associated with his career.

The statement says the single is available on all major streaming platforms. It does not disclose the release’s budget, distribution arrangements or commercial targets, and provides no Kenya-specific streaming figures or local performance dates.

Beyond recording, Mr Eazi founded emPawa Africa, a music business spanning label services, distribution and publishing. According to his representatives, the company has supported artists including Joeboy, Fave and J.Derobie. That business background places his latest release within a broader involvement in the production and commercial distribution of African music.

His representatives put his global streaming total at more than two billion. The statement does not identify the platforms, measurement period or reporting source behind that figure, limiting its usefulness in assessing the commercial performance of the new single.

“This is an updated version of my signature sound,” Mr Eazi said in the statement. “I am making gyal dem music—sweet, easy, flattering gyal dem music. It’s about keeping things light, fun and feel-good, while still giving people that familiar Mr Eazi sound they know and love.”

Producer Ragee worked on “Comfort”, which the release describes as combining Afrobeats, dancehall and R&B. It also credits him with production work on Davido’s “Unavailable” and Ayra Starr’s “Hot Body” and “Who’s Dat Girl”. Moliy joins the collaboration following her track “Shake it To The Max”, cited in the statement as a viral hit.

Ademola Falomo directed the accompanying video. Its visual references include 1980s telephone hotline advertisements, laser-grid graphics, shopping-mall photography backdrops and oversized mobile phones, according to the release.

The single follows several other Mr Eazi releases this year. His representatives list collaborations with US-based dancehall producer Dre Skull including “Lambo”, featuring Vybz Kartel, “Hide Your Love” and “Remember That”, featuring Cham. He also released “See What We’ve Done”, a collaborative album with Ghanaian musician King Promise.

For Kenya’s music business, the release offers an example of artists pairing cross-border collaborations with streaming distribution and video content. However, the statement provides no audience or revenue data from which to assess demand in Kenya or the wider East African market.

Mr Eazi’s representatives indicate that he will continue releasing music through 2026, but have not announced a timetable for the next project. The immediate rollout centres on streaming availability and the accompanying video.

Mr Eazi has released “Comfort”, a single and video featuring Ghanaian singer Moliy, adding to his 2026 catalogue. The release comes as the musician also operates in the music business through emPawa Africa, which spans label services, distribution and publishing.

Nigerian artist Mr Eazi has released a new single and music video titled “Dance Pon Me”, according to a press release dated December 15, 2025. The release arrives ahead of a dancehall-inspired mixtape that Mr Eazi plans to put out on Mixpak, the statement said.

The track follows “Sekkle & Bop”, Mr Eazi’s 2021 collaboration featuring Popcaan, and is positioned by his team as the latest preview of the upcoming project. The press release states that “Dance Pon Me” is available for streaming on digital platforms alongside an official video.

The release adds to a growing pipeline of Africa-origin music content timed to year-end entertainment demand, commonly referred to in West and East Africa as “Detty December”. For Kenya’s music and nightlife economy—covering clubs, live events, DJs, brand activations and streaming consumption—high-rotation singles in December typically influence bookings and playlists across Nairobi’s entertainment circuit, while also shaping cross-border collaborations and touring patterns.

According to the statement, “Dance Pon Me” was produced by Dre Skull and Cadenza. The release notes that Dre Skull has worked with Popcaan, Burna Boy and Vybz Kartel, while Cadenza has credits with Jorja Smith, Beyoncé and Doja Cat.

Songwriting credits listed in the press release include Oliver Rodigan, Andrew Hershey, Marlon Roudette and Oluwatosin Oluwole Ajibade.

The press release also frames the track as reflecting a wider Afro-diaspora sound and audience, explicitly referencing cities including Lagos, Accra, Nairobi and London as part of its intended cultural reach.

Mr Eazi is described in the statement as a Grammy Award–winning artist. The release cites his past catalogue—including tracks such as “Skin Tight” and “Leg Over”—and notes that he has performed at Coachella. It also references his involvement in nightlife concepts, including Choplife Soundsystem and Detty Rave.

In 2025, Mr Eazi released an EP titled “MAISON ROUGE”, which the statement describes as a return to his Banku Music roots.

While the press release does not disclose commercial terms, distribution partners, streaming figures or projected release dates for the Mixpak project, the announcement underscores the continuing competition for audience attention during the December peak season, when music releases often translate into demand for club play, event programming and short-form video content.

For Kenya’s market, such releases can have spillover effects across DJ setlists, streaming playlists and event line-ups, particularly as Nairobi remains a regular stop for regional touring and brand-sponsored nightlife events. The explicit mention of Nairobi in the press statement indicates continued interest in East African listenership as part of wider pan-African and diaspora consumption patterns.

Anyiko PR said media inquiries for East Africa should be directed to press@anyiko-pr.com. Mr Eazi’s team indicated that the single and official video are now available on streaming platforms, with the broader mixtape planned for release on Mixpak.
