Dertee – Hotness

Dertee turns up the temperature with Hotness, an Afrobeats record that delivers exactly what the title promises from the first beat and keeps that energy locked in without apologising for a single second of it.

Hotness rides a vibrant Afrobeats production with punchy percussion and a groove that sits confidently in the lane of music made specifically for movement, creating a listening experience that is infectious and immediate without needing any time to warm up before it has you fully engaged. The vocals carry a playful self assured energy throughout and the lyrical direction leans into celebration and attraction with the kind of uncomplicated confidence that makes feel good Afrobeats records so consistently satisfying to return to across different moods and settings.

Dertee has been building their presence in the African music space with releases that understand the assignment of delivering quality Afrobeats without overcomplicating a formula that works best when it trusts the groove and lets the energy lead. Their growing catalogue reflects an artist developing a consistent voice within the genre while showing enough personality across releases to stand out in a scene where the competition for attention is genuinely fierce right now.

This track belongs on every party playlist and summer rotation without needing any further recommendation beyond the fact that once it starts playing nobody is reaching to skip it.

Listen and Enjoy!
