Nigerian singer Lojay has sent waves of excitement through the global music industry with the announcement of his upcoming single, Memories, featuring South African star Tyla. The collaboration, teased on Wednesday, October 1, 2025, unites two of Africa’s most celebrated voices and is already being tipped as one of the most anticipated releases of the season.
Cinematic Teaser Reveals Song Details
The announcement was accompanied by a striking video clip that offered fans a cinematic preview of the new track. The visual features Lojay, dressed in a relaxed, stylish outfit, as he navigates a modern art gallery. The setting—characterized by bold red and blue walls, a red ceiling, and large windows overlooking a city skyline—provided a sleek backdrop for the teaser.
While Tyla does not appear in the video, her distinct vocals are clearly audible on the track. Snippets of the song reveal a dynamic blend of Afrobeats and R&B, focusing on powerful themes of lost love, regret, and lingering connection. The teaser concludes simply with the message: “MEMORIES. OUT SOON.”
A Fusion of Global African Sounds
The collaboration is highly anticipated due to the unique influence both artists hold on the global music stage.
Lojay, renowned for his breakout hit Monalisa and his joint project with producer Sarz, is celebrated for his signature fusion of Afrobeats, soul, and Amapiano. Meanwhile, Tyla catapulted to international fame with her global hit Water, where she was praised for her innovative blend of R&B and Amapiano rhythms.
With both artists dedicated to pushing the boundaries of African music, Memories is expected to be a groundbreaking track that perfectly fuses their respective styles for an international audience.
