Ghanaian Afrobeats artist, LUCKY SIKI, makes his industry debut with the party anthem “Derty December”
It’s a high-voltage song that perfectly captures the sight and sound of Nigeria’s festive season, with its colors, unfiltered and raw energy and camaraderie.
Driven by an Afrocentric trap beat with ambitious storytelling of the diaspora lifestyle, the record captures it all; the movement of shakers from party to afterparty, in convoys and police escorts, the meeting of old friends and introduction to new ones from around the world, all gathering to celebrate the season in Lagos, Nigeria.
From “March that machine” to “na convoy convoy,” “Derty December” captures the reckless joy and coded status play that defines December in Naija.
“This is Lagos’ most notorious month bottled in a beat: the chaos, the champagne, the convoys, the comeback energy of the diaspora,”says Lucky Siki.
He added: “December in Nigeria is “pure madness”, it is electric, rowdy and dangerous but the raw joy you experience is what pulls you back every year and that’s what I wanted to capture with this track.”
Derty December plays into this rowdiness, it’s a chant-driven street anthem built for the clubs, for the cruise, and for every night the city refuses to sleep.
