Afro-Dancehall sensation Qritiqal is back with a bang, delivering a blazing summer anthem titled “Roll Dat”, a genre-blending hit produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Chopstix and featuring the iconic Yaadman (formerly YungL).
Fusing the vibrant rhythms of Afrobeats, Afropop, and Dancehall, “Roll Dat” is quickly becoming an international favorite. Since its release, the track has gained massive traction across Nigeria, with Lagos leading in streaming numbers. The song has also sparked viral dance challenges across East Africa, particularly in Kenya and Tanzania, showcasing its infectious rhythm and dance appeal.
“Roll Dat” is not just making waves in Africa—it’s also receiving heavy rotation across Latin America, especially in Colombia, where it’s currently playing on over 30 radio stations, including a national broadcast premiere. This explosive growth sets the stage for Qritiqal’s upcoming Latin American Festival Tour, with performances lined up at major festivals like Petronio in Colombia.
Following a stellar 2024—marked by three major hits and successful appearances at mega festivals in Colombia under the label Cuaryen—Qritiqal is gearing up for an even bigger 2025. With “Roll Dat” capturing the energy of summer across continents, fans are already buzzing about a potential debut album.
Qritiqal is more than just a singer—he’s a true performer, songwriter, and a rising Afro-Dancehall king, representing the new wave of African talent reaching global audiences.
