Nigerian singer Kizz Daniel has released his first song of the year, Owo Oluwa, featuring Young Jonn, Krizbeatz and Wave Choir.
The singer announced the release on X, sharing the track’s cover art and a link for fans to listen. The single is the lead release from his forthcoming album, Radio Gidi, one of two albums he has announced plans to put out in 2026.
The new song combines dance-inspired production with a message of gratitude and faith, marking the start of another year of music from the award-winning artist.

The track opens with a house music-inspired sound before Kizz Daniel comes in with his vocals and lyrics. Wave Choir follows with the refrain, “Owo Oluwa nbe,” giving the song a choir-led moment that reinforces its spiritual theme.
Producer Krizbeatz then raises the tempo with heavier beats, while Young Jonn adds his vocals to the collaboration.
The song carries a strong gospel influence, with lyrics centred on God’s blessings. Its title, Owo Oluwa, refers to the hand of God, and the repeated refrain gives the track a message of appreciation.
The combination of choir vocals, energetic production and a faith-centred theme gives the single a sound that draws from both gospel and contemporary popular music.
Lead single from ‘Radio Gidi’
Kizz Daniel has described Owo Oluwa as the lead single from Radio Gidi, his forthcoming album.
In May, the singer announced plans to release two albums in 2026: Radio Gidi and Uncle K. He also thanked fans for their patience as he prepared the projects.
The release of Owo Oluwa gives listeners an early taste of the music planned for Radio Gidi. However, further details about the album’s release date and full tracklist were not included in the announcement described.
The single may also help build anticipation for the album, as fans wait to learn more about its sound and the other artists who could feature on it.

Fans await more details about the 2026 albums
