Afropapi Makes Statement With New Single “DND”
Rotterdam-based artist Afropapi has released his new single DND, marking a significant step forward in his emerging career. Known for blending his Ugandan heritage with contemporary international sounds, the artist is steadily carving out space in Europe’s music scene — and his latest track underscores that momentum.
For the visual component, Afropapi collaborated with Ugandan video director Sydney Wala. The video showcases high-concept storytelling and striking aesthetics, highlighting both Afropapi’s artistic vision and the growing global presence of Ugandan creative talent.
The title DND stands for “Do Not Disturb” a concept Afropapi uses to frame the track as an anthem of focus, resilience, and determination. The single delivers assertive production, layered melodies, and Afropapi’s energetic performance, reflecting a drive to cut through noise and negativity while pursuing his goals.
Released on 19 September, DND has already begun circulating across streaming platforms and drawing attention within both the Ugandan and European music communities. The track positions Afropapi as an artist bridging cultural influences and building a reputation for music that resonates with both power and purpose.
