Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Kizz Daniel is preparing to return with another major body of work as he gets ready for the release of his forthcoming album, “Radio Gidi.”
The highly anticipated project is scheduled to arrive on October 16, 2026, adding another exciting chapter to Kizz Daniel’s impressive career. The singer has remained one of the most consistent voices in Nigerian pop music, and his upcoming album is already shaping up to be one of his most collaborative releases yet.
Radio Gidi is expected to contain 12 tracks, bringing together an impressive selection of artists from Nigeria and beyond. Kizz Daniel has recruited the likes of FOLA, Seyi Vibez, BNXN, Young Jonn, Qing Madi, Jahmiel, Shatta Wale, Tinie Tempah, Mannywellz and Kunmie for the project.
Kizz Daniel Expands His Sound on Radio Gidi
The guest lineup suggests that Kizz Daniel is looking beyond a conventional Afrobeats album. With musicians representing different sounds and markets across Africa and the United Kingdom, Radio Gidi could see the Flyboy Inc. star explore several musical directions while maintaining the catchy melodies and relatable songwriting that have defined his career.
Among the collaborations expected on the album is “Taba” featuring Seyi Vibez and BNXN, bringing together three prominent voices in contemporary Nigerian music.
Another notable record is “Owo Oluwa”, featuring Young Jonn, Krizbeatz and Wave Choir. The collaboration combines Kizz Daniel’s melodic style with Young Jonn’s energetic approach and Krizbeatz’s production experience.
The album will also carry an international flavour. Jamaican acts Jahmiel and Qing Madi appear together on “Enough,” while Ghanaian star Shatta Wale joins Kizz Daniel on “Te Amo.”
British rapper Tinie Tempah is also featured on a song titled “Brown Paper Bag,” further highlighting the international direction of the project.
Radio Gidi Continues a Busy Era for Kizz Daniel
The announcement follows Kizz Daniel’s earlier revelation that he planned to release multiple projects in 2026. He previously identified Radio Gidi and Uncle K as projects he intended to deliver to fans after the release of his Uncle K: Lemon Chase EP.
Over the years, Kizz Daniel has built a catalogue filled with commercially successful records, including songs such as “Buga,” “Cough (Odo),” “Twe Twe,” “Lie,” and several other fan favourites.
His ability to combine memorable hooks, simple but effective songwriting and African rhythms has helped him maintain a strong presence in the Afrobeats scene for more than a decade.
What to Expect From Kizz Daniel’s Radio Gidi Album
While the full musical direction of Radio Gidi will become clearer when the album arrives, its diverse list of collaborators suggests listeners can expect a mixture of Afrobeats, Afropop and influences from other African and international sounds.
The project will also include solo records such as “48hrs,” “In the Shower,” “Forever (Can I),” “ABD” and “December,” giving Kizz Daniel enough room to balance the album’s numerous collaborations with songs centred entirely on his own artistry.
With its October 16, 2026 release date approaching, anticipation surrounding Kizz Daniel’s Radio Gidi album is expected to continue growing as the singer gradually reveals more about the project.
For fans who have followed Kizz Daniel through different stages of his career, Radio Gidi promises another opportunity to hear the Nigerian hitmaker experiment with new collaborations while delivering the infectious melodies that have become central to his sound.
