Wauve – Deh Deh

Proudly merging his Eritrean roots with his North London base, singer, songwriter, and rapper Wauve returns with his addictive new release ‘DEH DEH’.

Honouring his love for East African women, ‘DEH DEH’ is an open letter to the type of love and life Wauve envisions for his future self. An advocate for self-expression and an individual focused on family, culture, and passion, Wauve is underlining himself as a force to be reckoned with moving to the apex of a 5-year career in the scene.

‘DEH DEH’ emerges with a smooth and melodic texture sitting on a vibrant backing, whilst Wauve unites his personal experiences with syncopated percussion in a track that will continue the attention around an artist further growing into his identity.

With nearly 200k monthly listeners on Spotify and radio support coming strong across BBC 1xtra, Kiss Fresh and Capital Xtra, ‘DEH DEH’ feels like it has the potential to hit the Afrobeat charts with equal success to his 2021 hit ‘Vogue’ – which reached over 2M streams and featured on an abundance of high-profile Spotify playlists.

With co-signs coming from the likes of Hardy Caprio, hit collaborator One Acen, Apple’s Dotty (formerly BBC 1xtra) and global supertar Ne-Yo, Wauve’s fusion of R’n’B and Afrobeat’s looks set to hit a new milestone in 2022.
