Johannesburg, South Africa – 15th of August 2025 – African music takes another giant leap forward as BabyDaiz drops his brand-new single Matisa today, a record destined to move dance floors, hearts, and the culture itself.
BabyDaiz is not just an artist – he’s a force shaping the sound and spirit of a generation. Rising to fame with his breakout single “Enemies,” hailed by Nasty C as having the “greatest music video in South African history,” BabyDaiz quickly established himself as a creative disruptor. He then sparked a continent-wide wave with the viral anthem “Top! Masambe,” a TikTok sensation that had millions dancing across borders.
Following his breakout hits, BabyDaiz’s Allez Tobina single was more than just another release – it was a movement. Fusing high-energy African rhythms with world-class production, the track redefined the soundscape and cemented BabyDaiz as a true culture shaper. Riding this wave, he shared stages with Africa’s top stars, performed at major festivals, and built a dedicated fanbase – over 2.2 million TikTok followers, 241K Instagram fans, 8 million YouTube views, and 87K+ monthly Spotify listeners. Each milestone sharpened his vision and set the stage for his next bold step.
Now, after electrifying the streets and streams, BabyDaiz returns with Matisa – meaning “lift it up” in Lingala – a single that embodies elevation in every sense. Produced by Astro and Mathew Otis, the track is a spiritual rising through rhythm, rage, and ancestral release. Drawing from his rich multicultural roots – from South Africa to Atlanta and beyond – BabyDaiz crafts a sound that is deeply African yet universally resonant. Matisa is more than a single – it’s a statement. Proof that African music is not just participating in the global conversation; it’s leading it. With infectious energy, unapologetic originality, and an ever-growing international audience, BabyDaiz is lifting the culture to new heights.
