The catchy party-tune blends genres of dancehall and R&B, with Mayonde lending her sweet vocals as Elvis drops the lower register of his voice before taking it a notch higher with the perfect ragga chant. Turn Up music video produced by Trued Pictures is hip, fun and irresistible and is set to take music fans across Africa straight to the dance floor.

Ahead of the release, DJ Space spoke about the project saying, “I have loved Mayonde and Elvis Who’s music for a long time. My new project will feature a lot of seasoned high profile acts that I’ve worked with for a long time. However, I feel that Mayonde and Elvis collabo is a perfect way for me to introduce to the world real and exciting new talent,” adding that the upcoming album, “‘No Expiration Date’ is my affirmation to you that great African music and talent has no timelines or expiration dates. I hope that through the collaborations I bring forth, this album will be a strong product representing a new era of African DJs being the connectors between artists and culture.”
