Kotrell Celebrates Love as a Miracle in New Single “Wonda”

By  | 

Afro-soul and R&B artist Kotrell, originally from Rivers State, continues to share intimate glimpses of his artistry with the release of his latest single, “Wonda.” Following earlier releases this year like “Safe” and “Misbehave,” Kotrell now turns his expressive voice toward a love that feels rooted in grace and his Ijaw heritage.

“Wonda” is a tender yet vibrant expression of awe, capturing the profound moment when affection feels less like a coincidence and more like a true gift. The song opens with an inviting declaration, “Who never see miracle, come and see,” immediately painting his partner as something beyond ordinary—a “miracle,” a “missing rib” whose presence defies simple explanation.

The track’s heartfelt sincerity is grounded in Kotrell’s own roots. In the bridge, he slips into his native Ijaw dialect with the phrase “Tamuno imiete” (meaning “God, thank you”), adding a layer of personal and spiritual sincerity that elevates the love song into a quiet prayer of thanks. This use of language connects the universal theme of love to his specific cultural identity.

Sonically, the single is mesmerizing, fusing Afropop rhythms with gentle Highlife-inspired melodies. The production features light guitar lines, steady percussion, and warm harmonies that create an atmosphere both celebratory and intimate. Kotrell’s vocal delivery is smooth, patient, and expressive, carrying each lyric with meticulous care. The result is a love song that doesn’t just tell the listener about affection, but allows them to fully feel its quiet wonder.

“Wonda” is available now on all major streaming services.
