    Grammy Nominee Tay Iwar Collaborates with PDR and Shia on the Remix of Bad Belle off his Reflection Station EP 

    Following the success of his introspective Reflection Station EP and his recent collaboration with BLOND:ISH, Grammy nominee, Tay Iwar returns with Bad Belle (PDR. & Shia Remix) — a bold rework of one of the project’s most talked-about tracks.

     The remix sees Tay’s soulful anthem reimagined for the dancefloor, thanks to the combined talents of cutting-edge producers PDR. and Shia.

    Reimagined through their distinct sonic lenses, Bad Belle (Remix) transforms the original into an electrifying, genre-defying experience. 

    Built on a foundation of hypnotic percussion, Tay’s signature vocals, and a propulsive Afrohouse bounce, the remix blends amapiano, Afro-fusion, and electronic influences with effortless fluidity. 

    The result is a track that’s at once meditative and high-energy — equal parts soulful and cinematic. Opening with an atmospheric build before locking into a rolling groove of textured basslines and layered synths,

    PDR. is a London-based DJ and award-winning producer known for seamlessly blending genres across the electronic spectrum — from amapiano to UKG, drum and bass to Afrohouse — while infusing his African and Latin roots. 

    His genre-melting sets and productions have earned placements across DLT, Soulection, Rinse FM, BBC 1Xtra, and GUAP x Apple Music, marking him as a force within the global underground scene.

    Shia brings a deep, lifelong relationship with sound and Black musical culture, shaped by early experiments with production software and time spent in pirate radio booths. 

    Having re-emerged as a solo producer and DJ after formative years in duo The ShyBoyz, Shia’s current sound fuses soulful house, grime, amapiano, and dancehall, led by a personal mission to champion Black music’s past, present, and future.

     Together, PDR. & Shia elevate Bad Belle into a global dancefloor statement piece — a remix that expands Tay Iwar’s sonic world while honouring the emotional depth and defiance of the original.

    Released via CoolSweat and Benin City Ent, Bad Belle (PDR. & Shia Remix) continues Tay Iwar’s evolution as one of African music’s most dynamic voices.

The title track, “Reflection Station,” debuted on the US Billboard Afrobeats Songs Chart, marking a career milestone and affirming Tay’s growing impact on the global stage.

    Born and raised in Abuja, Nigeria, Tay developed a soulful, experimental sound that stood apart from the Afro-pop dominance of his era. He emerged as a key figure in Nigeria’s alté scene and quickly built a loyal fanbase through early independent releases and his critically acclaimed debut album GEMINI (2019).

His feature on “True Love,” from Wizkid’s globally acclaimed Made in Lagos album, became a standout moment that introduced his sound to millions worldwide.
