Nigerian artist Wande Coal keeps the “KING COAL” album rolling with “MONEY,” this time bringing in Dera for the ride.
After the way “6IX” opened things up, “MONEY” shifts the conversation slightly. The title alone already tells you the energy is different here. Where “6IX” felt more emotionally grounded, this one leans into that confident, I’ve-earned-everything-I-have kind of space. Wande Coal has always moved between those two worlds effortlessly, and “MONEY” reminds you why.
Dera fits the record well. She doesn’t come in trying to outshine anyone, just adds her own flavor to complement what Wande Coal is already doing. The chemistry between them sounds natural rather than forced, which makes the collaboration feel like it was always supposed to happen.
With fifteen tracks on “KING COAL” and names like Wizkid, Tiwa Savagee, BNXN, and Ruger also on the project, every song has to earn its spot. “MONEY” does that without breaking a sweat. It’s the kind of record that fits a drive or a small gathering equally well, nothing too loud, nothing too quiet.
If you’re already streaming “KING COAL” from the top, “MONEY” is one of those moments that keeps you going without skipping. Worth letting it play.
