Today, LA based producer Sam Blacky drops her new single ‘Ronaldinho‘ via the tastemaking label Easier Said. This high-energy track features the powerhouse vocals of Nigerian superstar Niniola, creating a global dance floor anthem.
Sam Blacky has carved a unique path in the dance music scene. Her infectious blend of house, techno, and tribal influences has earned her a devoted global fanbase, taking her from Miami Music Week to Coachella after-parties to international adventures in Guatemala and Vietnam.
‘Ronaldinho,’ dropping just in time for summer, isn’t just a catchy groover. Blacky’s production magic shines through with a four-on-the-floor beat that perfectly complements Niniola’s stunning vocals. The title itself pays homage to the legendary Brazilian footballer, as the track holds a deeper meaning for both artists. For Blacky, it’s a celebration of her growing passion for Afro-house, while Niniola’s Nigerian roots blossom with a powerful story woven into the track.
“As my passion for music deepened, it intertwined more and more with Afro House. The chance to collaborate with an Afrobeat icon like Niniola was a dream come true. When I heard her vocals for ‘Ronaldinho,’ I knew this song had to happen.” – Sam Blacky
