Audio | Nadia Mukami Ft Bensoul – Overdose
BY: Bongo Mpya | May 23, 2025

Alright, let’s keep it real. Nadia Mukami just dropped “Overdose” with Bensoul, and—no joke—if it’s not in your playlist yet, what are you even doing? This track’s already blowing up all over East Africa. It’s got those lyrics that hit home, the kinda hook that’ll haunt you in the best way, and this slick blend of Swahili and Luganda that just… works. Like, why doesn’t every song do this?
This isn’t your basic, cookie-cutter love tune either. “Overdose” feels like Nadia and Bensoul are straight-up inviting you into their own personal rom-com—messy, wild, and swoon-worthy. Nadia’s vocals? She’s not just singing, she’s nearly spilling her guts out. It’s raw, it’s sweet, it’s a little vulnerable. She bounces between Swahili and Luganda like it’s nothing—and honestly, it slaps.
Then Bensoul slides in, and man, the whole vibe gets even smoother. His voice? Silky. When they harmonize? Chef’s kiss. You can literally feel the sparks—these two are not faking it.
And don’t even get me started on that chorus—“Overdosezi!” It’ll burrow into your brain and refuse to leave. The whole “crazy in love as an overdose” metaphor? Low-key genius. Bottom line: this is a banger. Afro pop at its best, all heart and good vibes. Seriously, just hit play already.
