Italian-born, Miami-raised urban pop star Dici shares his newest single ‘Champagne Showers’ today — the first release of the year after a pentalogy of singles in 2022 is scheduled for February 17th via his own record label DICI Records. Making it the latest addition to an arsenal of melodic hip-hop anthems that have accumulated over 2 Million Spotify streams in 100 countries and more than 4 Million views on his professionally directed and produced videos on YouTube.

‘Champagne Showers’ is an infectious pop-rap caviar — elegant drum rhythms and vibrant, glossy synths roll through the entire single creating a graceful foundation for Dici to let his unbound melodic flow build upon this musical delicacy. Hip-hop flourishes and lo-fi elements create the essence of this latest single. We see Dici continue showing off his refined rap verses but also focus on bolder, more melodic pop production. Dici is an artist that works diligently on developing his creative aesthetic, ever-maturing an insightful narrative flow, composition and production skills.

Dici has evolved from a quarantined 17-year-old, free-styling rhymes and mastering the Pro Tools rig in his bedroom to an emerging rap star with thousands of worldwide followers, a popular critically acclaimed indie EP on his own label. Dici’s influences can be heard so clearly as he matches his quality with the likes of Denzel Curry, Action Bronson, Mayhem Lauren, and Kenny Beats.

On previous releases, such as ‘305-INTERLUDE’, ‘Bar for Bar’, and ‘Vector’, Dici has worked with Associated Press and Emmy-winning director and cinematographer Brian Bayerl of Greendoor East Productions. Proficient at blending powerhouse beats and a soulful, melodic, sometimes hypnotic synth-generated flow, Dici is a name to watch out for before he blows up.

In Mi Paddi, Chechii returns not just with a new single, but with a reinvigorated musical identity. The song is vibrant, magnetic, and undeniably global—a sonic postcard from a young artist who has lived across continents and now channels those experiences into music that resonates far beyond borders.

Collaborating with Kracktwist and Samza, two of Sierra Leone’s finest musical exports, Chechii crafts a song that doesn’t just cross cultural lines—it dances on them. The track effortlessly merges rhythmic Afrobeat drums with the soulful stylings of Afrosoul and a dose of pop sheen, creating a hybrid sound that’s both fresh and familiar.

Chechii’s vocals are a highlight—expressive and emotionally resonant, with a sincerity that makes every line feel like a personal confession or heartfelt toast to her “paddi” (friend). Meanwhile, Kracktwist and Samza bring a playful yet grounded energy to the track, balancing Chechii’s soaring melodies with gritty, rhythmic flows.

Beyond the infectious hook and irresistible groove, what makes Mi Paddi stand out is its emotional depth. This isn’t just a party track—it’s a celebration of the real relationships that sustain us. It’s music that recognizes the beauty in camaraderie, cultural exchange, and shared growth.

With Mi Paddi, Chechii makes a confident leap forward in her musical evolution. She’s not just riding the wave of Afro-fusion’s global rise—she’s shaping its future, one heartfelt song at a time.
