Ray Ramon reached his fusionist zenith with his latest single, Kilode, as the award-winning artist merged culture and genre to deliver a soulfully temperate, rhythmically resolving aural remedy that takes you away from material reality and geographical boundaries until you are fully immersed in the universal language of melody. The Nigerian Australian singer and songwriter leans into his Afrobeats roots and global outlook in equal measure, offering three and a half minutes of escape that still feels emotionally grounded enough to hit where it hurts and heals.

The heat which spills from the production is infectious as Afrobeat and dancehall rhythms collide with the western front through retro pop synth lines, while Latin shaded guitar strings further add to the cultural smorgasbord that sates your mind, body and soul. Sultry sax phrases and hypnotic percussion pull you deeper into the groove as English and Yoruba lines trace the playful tension of love, attraction, and the complicated work of letting yourself feel worthy of either. All the while, Ramon uses his rich, deep, reverberant vocal lines to simultaneously placate and awaken, nudging you into that sweet spot where reflection and release meet.

Produced by Andromeda, Kilode arrives as the latest chapter in a catalogue that has already earned Ramon international recognition, from indie award wins in Hollywood to radio traction across Australia, Nigeria, the UK and the US. His knack for folding pop sensibilities into Afrobeat and R&B frameworks comes across as instinctive rather than calculated, the sound of an artist who understands how rhythm, romance, and communal joy can move in the same direction.

Kilode is now available on all major streaming platforms.

Fancy waking up to a phone call from your Hollywood friends telling you… YOU WON?! 😱🙏
