Artist: DJ Tunez Ft. Wizkid
Song Title: State of Mind
Genre: Afrobeats / Afro-Fusion
Release Date: May 15, 2026
Starboy’s official DJ and longtime sonic architect, DJ Tunez, reunites with global Afrobeats icon Wizkid for their highly anticipated new collaboration titled State of Mind, and the record delivers exactly what the pairing promises.
Built on a mellow, groove-driven instrumental, the track leans into a calm and reflective atmosphere, allowing Wizkid to deliver his signature effortless vocals with a delivery that feels unforced and fluid, riding the beat with subtle melodies that emphasise mood over complexity. DJ Tunez, who has spent over a decade as the quiet force behind the Starboy sound, crafts a production that feels tailor-made for the moment — minimal yet immersive, with just enough bounce to keep things engaging without ever breaking the spell.
State of Mind revolves around themes of peace, self-awareness, and enjoying life at one’s own pace — rather than chasing high energy, the record thrives on its relaxed tempo and soothing vibe. It is the kind of record that does not demand your attention but earns it effortlessly, rewarding patience with a listening experience that feels increasingly rich with every replay.
These two have worked together for over a decade and their chemistry has never been in question — DJ Tunez has not simply been a collaborator in the conventional sense but has functioned as an integral part of the Starboy sound, helping shape the textural, unhurried quality that defines a lot of Wizkid’s best work. State of Mind is the natural extension of that partnership — assured, atmospheric, and unmistakably them.
A strong and timely release that confirms the Starboy camp is operating at full creative capacity in 2026.
