DEELA - Slide (Official Video)
DEELA Drops New Single ‘Slide’ & Teases Mixtape ‘Wicked’.
Nigerian-British rapper DEELA is back with her latest single ‘Slide’, a fearless, high-energy track produced by Genio Bambino (Cruel Santino, Davido) and Dëra (Bad Bunny, J Balvin). The release kicks off her bold new Wicked era — a sonic blend of rap and dynamic, dancefloor-ready beats that embody the duality of “good and evil.”
Written after a creative hiatus, ‘Slide’ sees DEELA in full affirmation mode: “It literally brought me out of the shell I was in… I’m just really affirming myself and claiming all the things I want.”
Fresh off last month’s ‘Supreme Dee’ and her exclusive Wicked Hour session on Foundation FM, DEELA continues to cement herself as a trailblazer in UK rap. Since teaching herself the ropes as an independent artist, she’s built a creative community, collaborated with the likes of Flo Milli, Teni, BXKS, and earned a spot on NME’s 2025 ‘100’ list.
From co-signs by industry icons to fronting fashion campaigns for Sinead Gorey, Di Petsa, and Jeffrey Campbell, DEELA is shaping culture on her own terms — and ‘Slide’ is just the beginning of what’s to come from Wicked.
