Terry Apala and Mavo Release Buzzworthy ‘Apaladisskizzy’ Collab
Terry Apala, the undisputed king of modern Apala-fusion, kicks off his 2026 run with “Apaladisskizzy,” an infectious new single featuring fast-rising star Mavo.
The record is a bold, genre-bending statement fusing traditional Yoruba Apala percussion with booming 808s and the glossy, hypnotic textures of Amapiano.
It’s high-energy, dancefloor-ready, and somehow manages to sound both deeply rooted and futuristic at once, a balance Terry Apala has mastered over the years.
The chemistry between Terry and Mavo is immediate. Terry’s signature deep, gravelly vocals anchor the record, while Mavo floats effortlessly with a lighter, melodic delivery.
Together, they glide through the song’s complex rhythms, trading verses that celebrate nightlife, movement, and cultural pride.
The production never lets up, pulling listeners into a trance-like groove that perfectly captures the spirit of the ever-evolving “Apala-Disco” movement.
Lyrically, Apaladisskizzy isn’t concerned with heavy storytelling — and it doesn’t need to be. The focus here is vibe, rhythm, and sonic playfulness. Even the title feels like a playful invention, mirroring the stuttering, percussive bounce of the beat. It’s a carefree, celebratory track that prioritises energy, charisma, and technical brilliance over introspection.
With Apaladisskizzy, Terry Apala once again proves why he remains at the forefront of reimagining traditional African sounds for a global audience.
Bringing Mavo into the mix adds a fresh spark, ensuring the Apala-fusion wave stays exciting, current, and impossible to ignore — especially when the DJ turns the volume all the way up.
