Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Chella is stepping into a defining chapter of his young career as he prepares to unveil his newest project, Chella Chant, dropping Friday, November 28, 2025.
The EP houses seven tracks, and if the buzz circling it is anything to go by, Chella is aiming far beyond Nigeria’s borders this time.
Over the past year, the fast-rising star has carved out a signature sound — a warm blend of Afro-R&B, Afro-pop, and Dancehall, layered with silky vocals and the kind of emotional storytelling that feels both playful and deeply personal. Fans have also become fond of his cinematic visuals, which help his songs hit even harder.
Of course, a lot of this momentum traces back to the wildfire success of his breakout hit, My Darling. With over 60 million Spotify streams, the song has lived a full global life: going viral on TikTok, climbing high on global Shazam charts, and peaking at No. 8 on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart, a milestone that put Chella firmly on the international radar.
While the full tracklist of the EP is still under wraps, Chella has already teased the title track Chella Chant, as well as crowd favorite Loyal. He’s also hinted that this project might lean more into melodic rap, a direction his fans have been begging him to explore further.
With excitement bubbling across social platforms, Chella Chant is shaping up to be a bold statement one that captures both his artistic growth and his steady rise as a hitmaker ready to reach new heights.
