Nigerian-born, London-based Afrobeats artist Trdollar Y has released his latest single, “GTK (Gotta Know),” a track that blends his Nigerian roots with the contemporary influences of the UK music scene. Produced by Amosbeatz, the single combines intricate percussion, mellow chords, and a hypnotic tempo that underscores Trdollar Y’s melodic delivery and reflective lyrics.

“‘Gotta Know’ is about identity and self-belief,” Trdollar Y explained. “It’s about trusting the process and knowing that your moment will come if you keep building.” The song reflects his journey from a promising talent in Lagos to a globally conscious artist navigating London’s vibrant music circuit.

Trdollar Y has steadily built a catalogue over the past few years, beginning with early SoundCloud freestyles and his 2022 EP TR$Y, along with fan favourites such as Omo and Skelewu. His work has accumulated over 100,000 Spotify streams and 200,000 SoundCloud plays, earning recognition from prominent figures in the Afrobeats community, including Olu Maintain, Ice-K (Artquake), and SMADE, founder of Afro Nation.

Beyond streaming figures, Trdollar Y’s influence spans Nigeria, the UK, and the wider diaspora. His music has been featured in platforms such as Culture Custodian, WeTalkSound, and Naijarated, while “Gotta Know” has been highlighted on Spotify editorial playlists including Made in Naija, SZN AFRICA’s Next Up, and Fresh Music Friday.

With this release, Trdollar Y positions himself as a bridge between African rhythms and global audiences, capturing the cultural duality of his upbringing and creative evolution. “Gotta Know” is both a statement of intent and a reflection of his artistic growth, signalling his emergence as a rising contender on the international Afrobeats stage.
