“Dem Dead” is a bold, high-energy anthem that brings together rising Nigerian artist DRELA and Ghanaian Grammy nominee and BET Awards winner STONEBWOY in a powerful West African-Caribbean collaboration.
“DEM DEAD” is a fusion of Afrobeats, Dancehall, and street-hop energy — a sonic showdown that’s as raw as it is infectious. With Drela’s fiery delivery and Stonebwoy’s commanding presence.
Built on a foundation of rhythmic percussion, punchy melodies, and urgent lyrical delivery, the track bridges Afrobeats and Dancehall with an edge that speaks to both street resilience and celebration. The title “Dem Dead” is an expression from West African Pidgin, loosely translating to “They’re finished” or “They’re done for.”
In the context of the track, it’s a confident declaration of dominance and survival in a chaotic world.
