Popularly known as Zerry DL, Divine Uzama is a rising Nigerian rapper and songwriter whose very unique style of storytelling in music, blends afrobeats with catchy rap flows in pidgin english and his local dialect.
Zerry DL’s connection to the music industry came through his brother, Shallipopi, who is a successful artist and the owner of Plutomania Records. He gained significant recognition across Nigeria and internationally in 2023 with his breakout track “Puff & Pass” which became a massive hit and brought him to limelight.
Below is a list of Zerry DL’s songs we consider to be essentials.
Puff & Pass (Remix) – with Shallipopi
After his breakout track, “Puff & Pass” brought the attention to him, he went on to create the remix with his brother, Shallipopi AKA, Pluto Presido. Zerry and Shalli’s energies on the song were a perfect mix of street, vibes and love.
Popo
“I no gree, I no gree”… from the intro, you can sense his pain and aggression towards the Nigerian police. This is due to the general issue of profiling by uniformed men amongst young Nigerians, especially towards young men.
Cash – with Seyi Vibez
All a man wants and more comes to him once he has money. This is the exact picture Zerry and Seyi try to paint on this song, “Once I get all this cash, I don get many plans…”
Back to Back
His latest single, Zerry uses his catchy lyrics and high-energy to once again display his unique blend of Nigerian street slang and infectious rhythm.
If "Hermother's Daughter" isn't talking about something she is passionate about, then she's writing it. She is always in her head space, majorly thinking about what to cook or bake (to be frank, eat).
