Nigerian Afropop artist and songwriter Balloranking returns with an energetic new release titled “Kawasaki (Freestyle).”
The track leans straight into hustle culture, ambition, and proving doubters wrong. The gratitude and grind Balloranking speaks on here feels authentic and not rehearsed because he’s always written from a personal place.
Production credits go to Akinwunmi “Dapper” Damilola, Yubashang, and Soulwize. Their combined work gives the song a heavy bounce and polished sound design that works well for the freestyle format.
His tender, Auto-Tune-warped vocals stay loose throughout, giving him plenty of room to play with flow and delivery without sounding restricted. That looseness is part of what makes freestyles like this one fun to revisit.
Coming off the back of “Angelina” and “Melanin” with Oxlade, Balloranking keeps a busy release schedule in 2026. Stream “Kawasaki (Freestyle)” now and see how the energy hits you.
