You know that song you hear once and it instantly sticks? The kind that wraps around your emotions like a warm hug or the perfect text at 11:17 PM? That’s exactly what Overdose by Nadia Mukami and Bensoul is. A smooth, sultry collab that blends the best of R&B, Afro-pop, and soul—and leaves you craving more.
From the moment the beat drops, you already know you’re in for a vibe. The production is mellow and groovy, with soft guitar licks and a bassline that hugs the rhythm just right. Nadia comes in with her signature soft yet powerful vocals, setting the tone with a verse that feels like a love letter whispered into your ear.
Then Bensoul follows, and whew! His voice? A whole experience. Silky smooth, emotional, and seasoned with that uniquely Kenyan soul we’ve all come to love him for. Together, they create a back-and-forth chemistry that feels effortless and real, like a conversation between two people genuinely in love—or maybe addicted to each other’s presence (hence Overdose right?).
The lyrics are simple but effective. It’s not overcomplicated poetry—it’s everyday language turned beautiful. Lines like I don’t want nobody else hit hard, especially if you’ve ever been so into someone it feels almost medicinal.
Whether you’re deep in love, freshly in heartbreak, or somewhere in between, this song gets you.
Nadia Mukami has always had a thing for catchy hooks and heartfelt writing. Bensoul? The king of soulful delivery. Put them together and you get balance—pop and soul, softness and strength, femininity and masculinity. No one is outshining the other. It’s a true 50-50, and you can feel it.
Overdose is one of those collabs that makes you wonder, “Why haven’t they done this sooner?” It’s clean, romantic, and replay-worthy. If this is your first time hearing it, you're in for a treat. And if you’ve already had it on repeat, well—you get it.
So plug in your earphones, close your eyes, and let Nadia and Bensoul take you on a 3-minute emotional rollercoaster. Just be warned—you might get addicted. No rehab for this kind of overdose.
