el Mafrex releases new uplifting song DAKKADA. He features Afro pop/gospel artiste Usimeke on this one.
DAKKADA, which translates to “Rise up” in the Ibibio language, is a call to rise and praise God in celebration of his faithfulness; it draws inspiration from Psalms 122:1 and Nehemiah 9:5 and adopts the styles of South African and Akwa Ibom cultural beats. With its Biblical lyrics and compelling melodies, “Dakkada” is a testament to the power of music to transcend boundaries and unite people in celebration of God.
Psalms 122:1 says, “I was glad when they said unto me, ‘Let us go into the house of the LORD.’” This verse captures the essence of communal worship and the joy of coming together to praise God, a sentiment beautifully echoed in “Dakkada”. Nehemiah 9:5 adds, “Stand up and praise the LORD your God, who is from everlasting to everlasting.” This verse serves as the foundation of the song’s message, inspiring us to rise and give thanks for God’s eternal love and blessings.
“Dakkada” is more than just a song; it’s a call to action, a celebration of faith, and a reminder of the unity that can be found in praising the Creator. The infectious rhythm and heartfelt lyrics are sure to uplift spirits and bring joy to audiences worldwide. In an era where music transcends borders and genres, el Mafrex and Usimeke have created a musical masterpiece that is innovative, honors their tradition, and stays true to their Christian beliefs.
