Zambian music is having a moment of greatness, and DJ Vjeezy is right at the center of it, pioneering groundbreaking collaborations that elevate the industry to new heights.
The latest track, Come Over, a high-energy blend of Zambian and Nigerian artistry, features Vjeezy, Nigerian rapper Ice Prince, and Zambian heavyweights Jozzi and Chef 187. Since its release, fans and critics alike have embraced the track, which promises to become another favorite on radio and club playlists across Zambia and beyond.
Reflecting on his friendship with Ice Prince, Vjeezy came to Facebook to share how they originally met in 2012. Ice Prince was already an international sensation at the time, yet his humility stood out.
Despite his growing celebrity, Ice Prince developed a bond with Vjeezy, becoming a mentor and supporter. Years later, in 2018, when Vjeezy expressed his desire to begin creating music, Ice Prince was fully in support.
“Whenever you’re ready, I got you, bro,” he said, eventually delivering Vjeezy’s first verse. That collaboration, the smash tune Special Feeling, starring Zambian singer Dimpo Williams and rapper Slapdee, propelled Vjeezy into the spotlight, dominating radio waves and club playlists across Zambia.
It was a watershed moment for Vjeezy, marking the beginning of his rise to prominence as one of Zambia’s most important DJs and producers.
Now, in 2024, Vjeezy and Ice Prince have reunited to release another anticipated hit, Come Over. The track’s popularity reflects not only Vjeezy’s development, but also the progress Zambian artists are making on a global scale.
With indigenous music thriving and partnerships spanning continents, Zambian music is establishing itself as a prominent participant on the world stage. Vjeezy’s persistent devotion to merging Zambian sounds with international influences is a positive indication for the industry, demonstrating how skill and determination can take Zambian music around the world.
With Come Over, Vjeezy builds on his history of foreign collaborations, and fans are excited to see what comes next in his quest to promote Zambian music across boundaries. This current track is more than just a song, it’s a celebration of Zambian artistry’s global reach.
