Rising Afro-fusion Artist Derrick UGC returns with a soul-baring new single, “DND”. A powerfulanthem born from sleepless nights, relentless grind, and an unbreakable loyalty to family.
Blending emotionally honest lyrics with smooth, rhythmic production, “DND” showcases Derrick’s ability to tell his story with raw vulnerability and Afro-fusion flair. With each bar, he takes listeners into his world, a space defined by focus, ambition, and the daily fight to turn dreams into reality.
“Till Mumsi don soft, I dey for my bedside dey go hard. Till I don buy house, I nodey come your side my brother.”
With these words, Derrick opens the door into his world, one shaped by love for his mother, the weight of expectations, and the raw drive to rise above. This isn’t a song crafted for trends; it’s a life etched into melody.
The title “DND” means more than silencing a phone. It’s a declaration. A mental mode. A boundary. It signals are a commitment to growth, to peace, and to vision. It’s for everyone who’s had to tune out the world just to hear themselves think, who’s had to step away to build something real.
And then comes the chorus. Bold, emotional, and instantly familiar:
“So no dey bother me sho, I dey on DND sho mo, that’s my reality sho, do it formy family sho mo.”
These lines hit home for anyone grinding in silence, those with big dreams and few words, those whocarry responsibility on their shoulders without ever making a sound about it. In “DND,” Derrick speaks for the quiet hustlers, the late-night planners, the ones who love deeply but express it through action,not noise.
The song’s production is stripped back, yet rich with soul. It allows Derrick’s voice, raspy, emotive, and unwavering to take center stage. There are no distractions here, just truth layered over melody. It’s Afro-fusion at its most vulnerable and honest.
From whispered prayers to solo sessions in dimly lit rooms, from the weight of lost time to the fire of unshakable dreams, “DND” carries the soul of a fighter who chooses love over ego, focus over clout,and depth over display.
“DND” is more than music. It’s a message.It’s a letter to self. A love song to family. An anthem for anyone who understands that greatness demands sacrifice, that real ones move in silence, and that purpose needs protection.
