Guinea-Bissau singer Ramiro Naka has released “Nha Indimigo”, a new version of the Guinean classic featuring Patche di Rima.
Released on August 14, the track draws from the traditional Goumbé sound of Guinea-Bissau while incorporating a contemporary production. Fred Laser produced and arranged the new version.
Naka’s career is closely associated with Goumbé music and the wider Lusophone African music scene. Born in Guinea-Bissau, he began performing with groups including Cobiana Jazz and Nkassa Cobra before developing an international career in Lisbon and Paris.
His work has also extended beyond music. Naka appeared as the lead actor in Flora Gomes’ Po di Sangui, which was selected for the 1996 Cannes Film Festival.
In 2025, Naka returned to recorded music with “Tchon Tchoma”, a collaboration with Tabanka Djaz that received radio play across Guinea-Bissau, Angola, Portugal, Cape Verde and France.
“Nha Indimigo” continues Naka’s return to music, this time alongside Patche di Rima and with a familiar Guinean song at its centre.
“Nha Indimigo” is available on streaming platforms.
