Nigerian hitmaker Rexxie, the mastermind behind era-defining anthems like “Soapy” and “Abracadabra”, returns with “Road 2 Riches” — the high-octane lead single from his forthcoming album BIG VYBZ.
A bold cross-continental fusion of Afrobeats and Amapiano, “Road 2 Riches” sees Rexxie join forces with TitoM and Yuppe, the South African duo behind the global smash “Tshwala Bam”.
The result is a propulsive, groove-laden production that bridges Lagos and Pretoria and reaffirms Rexxie’s reputation as one of the continent’s most innovative sonic architects.
Vocals come courtesy of YKB, one of Nigeria’s most distinctive new Afrobeats voices, and 2woshort, a rising force in South Africa’s Amapiano scene. Together, they deliver a dynamic, feel-good anthem that celebrates ambition, success, and the shared rhythm of Africa’s new sound.
“Road 2 Riches” embodies the spirit of BIG VYBZ: an unapologetically pan-African project uniting the continent’s finest producers, vocalists, and scenes. As the first taste of what’s to come, it sets the tone for an album that promises to redefine the boundaries of modern African pop.
The song samples TKZee’s legendary 1998 hit Dlala Mapantsula, a Kwaito classic that took the South African music scene by storm.
