LAGOS, NIGERIA — Nigerian music icon D’Prince is officially back — and he’s not coming quietly. After years of operating behind the scenes and building a new generation of Afrobeats stars, the Mavin Records alumnus and Jonzing World boss is stepping back into the spotlight with a renewed hunger and a bold declaration: he’s here to reclaim his spot as one of Afrobeats’ foremost recording artists.
The Comeback
D’Prince, born Charles Enebeli, took to social media recently to announce his return with the words, “I’m back and ready.” The phrase has since become a rallying cry among fans and industry insiders who’ve long awaited new material from the man behind hits like “Take Banana” and “Ooze.” His comeback single — rumored to drop in the coming weeks — promises a fusion of nostalgia and innovation, blending classic Naija soundscapes with the modern sonic energy he helped pioneer.
From Star to Star-Maker
D’Prince’s hiatus from recording wasn’t a retreat — it was acalculated evolution. He launched Jonzing World in 2019 and discovered breakout superstar Rema, followed by Ruger, Gdzilla,Glorious Boy, and Bagetti. With their global successes, especially Rema’s “Calm Down” topping international charts, D’Prince solidified himself as one of Afrobeats’ most influential talent curators.Yet, while he played the mentor role to perfection, fans never forgot the artist who once lit up stages with his infectious energy and streetwise charisma.
Why Now?
“I’ve done what I needed to do behind the scenes. Now it’s time to remind people where this all started,” D’Prince reportedly told close associates. As Afrobeats continues to dominate the global stage, the timing feels perfect for a seasoned artist like him to return — not as a relic of a past era, but as a revitalized force ready to redefine the sound again.
Reclaiming the Crown
The Afrobeats scene is more crowded than ever, with a new wave of stars dominating playlists and airwaves. But D’Prince isn’t here to compete — he’s here to remind. His return speaks to legacy, confidence, and unfinished business. In his own words, “I never left the game. I just changed the way I play it.” As anticipation builds, one thing is certain: D’Prince isn’t just back — he’s ready, and the game should take notice.
