Get ready to dive into a musical journey with the single “Rosalina” by the emerging artist MiDi KwaKwa. Featuring the dynamic Yung D3mz and produced by the talented Uche B, this track delves into the intricacies of our inner emotions while celebrating the vibrant Amapiano genre from South Africa, fused with MiDi’s captivating R&B vocals.
Joining MiDi on this introspective journey is Ghanaian sensation Yung D3mz. His innovative blend of African and Western pop influences adds a fresh, vibrant layer to the track. Yung D3mz, an artist who has performed at SXSW in 2023 and 2024, is known for his talent as a singer, rapper, songwriter, and award-winning producer.
The creation of “Rosalina” was as unique as the song itself. Meeting for the first time at Uche’s house, the artists quickly found their rhythm. MiDi, stepping out of her R&B comfort zone, channelled her alter ego to create a dance track that pushed her boundaries. Yung D3mz’s impromptu verse, delivered with such intensity that it needed no second take, became the perfect complement to the song.
“Rosalina is like my alter ego, embodying my Scorpio moon,” explains MiDi KwaKwa. “She’s the hidden side of me, a presence that I like to keep concealed. To grow as a person, I’ve had to address and change my negative qualities, my so-called toxic traits. This process is challenging for everyone. But engaging in this shadow work is an important step in our journey towards personal development and achieving the best version of ourselves that we aspire to become.”
MiDi KwaKwa captivates audiences with her soulful and emotionally charged music. Raised by her Ghanaian parents in a small town in West Germany, her upbringing has influenced her unique sound, blending elements of Neo Soul and Alternative R&B. After thriving in Berlin’s creative hub, she has now moved back to the vibrant city of Rotterdam in the Netherlands, where she continues to inspire with her music.
In 2019, she was recognized by Red Bull Music as one of the 17 best newcomers in the industry, a prestigious acknowledgment that further highlights her potential and solidifies her position as a rising artist. MiDi KwaKwa’s music resonates with listeners on a profound level, addressing themes of love, self-discovery, and personal growth. Her authentic storytelling and vulnerable approach invite audiences to embark on an emotional journey alongside her.
In 2021, she celebrated her first sold-out solo show at BIRD in Rotterdam, leaving a lasting impression on the audience with her mesmerizing performance. Set to unveil her debut EP “Moonflower” in 2024, MiDi KwaKwa is poised to captivate audiences with her enchanting blend of Neo Soul, Alternative R&B, and EDM.
