With Ezewa, Nigerian-American artist Kate Odulukwe delivers a vibrant, self-assured Afrobeats track that pulses with confidence and energy. Rooted in the Igbo word “Eze,” meaning “king,” Kate cleverly transforms the term into a personal mantra. Ezewa becomes a celebration of self-worth, power, and unapologetic confidence. It’s a song for anyone ready to own their moment and move through life like royalty.
Built on infectious rhythms, bouncing percussion, and richly layered melodies, Ezewa stands out for its boldness and groove. Kate’s vocals are smooth yet commanding, effortlessly riding the beat while delivering empowering lyrics that encourage listeners to stand tall and embrace their inner strength. The fusion of traditional Afrobeats with global influences gives the track a fresh, contemporary edge, reflecting Kate’s unique Afro-diasporic sound.
Produced across Anambra State, Nigeria and New York City, Ezewa captures both Kate’s cultural roots and her global vision. Influences from artists like Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage, and Rema are evident, but Kate carves out her own space with originality and finesse.
As her reputation grows, with co-signs from industry veterans like Sway Calloway and Rich Nice, Ezewa firmly positions Kate Odulukwe as a rising voice in the evolving Afrobeats scene.
