Three years after his previous album Formule 7, legendary musician Fally Ipupa makes a defining statement with the arrival of his new album XX. “Jam,” the latest collaboration between the Congolese singer and Nigerian artist Wizkid, arrives as one of the standout moments on Ipupa’s 2026 album. A 20-tracked project that reflects both his legacy in Congolese rumba and his evolving global reach.

The cross-regional collaboration, “Jam”, is a seamless convergence of Central and West African sounds, built on a smooth Afro-fusion palette that prioritises melody, rhythm, and feel-good moments.

At its core, Fally Ipupa’s “Jam” thrives on chemistry, where he brings his signature fluid vocals rooted in rumba and ndombolo traditions. While Wizkid slides in with a laid-back, effortless delivery in his signature Afrobeats style. His catchy chorus takes the highlight of the track with groove-laden verses marked by sensual lyricism.

Sonically, the track leans into a gentle groove: soft percussion, warm instrumentation, and a rhythmic bounce that feels equally suited for intimate listening and dancefloor moments.

While Fally Ipupa’s “Jam” coincides with his 20th anniversary as a solo artist, the track also marks a renewed link-up between two African heavyweights, reinforcing the ongoing dialogue between Afrobeats and Congolese music.
