Mx Cartier, Dr. Chaii, and Benni Ola Drop Afro House Heat with ‘Zesa’

Out since July 18, 2025, on IN / ROTATION, ‘Zesa’ teams up Mx Cartier, Dr. Chaii, and Benni Ola for a high-octane afro house cut. Mx Cartier, the Paris-based beatmaker, has been unstoppable since launching in 2024 with his Jorja Smith remix ‘High’ and racking up millions of streams on ‘Oh Na Ri Na’ and ‘My Return Home’ with Benni Ola. His tracks have earned spins from Keinemusik, AmyElle, and more. Benni Ola, LA’s go-to rapper-singer, flexes his range after working with J. Worra and Daktyl, while Dr. Chaii, a Zimbabwean force, brings his joyful energy and pop cred from collabs with Sean Paul, Tyla, and Chris Brown.

This track’s a livewire: ‘Zesa’ locks in with a pulsing bassline, tribal rhythms, and sharp percussive accents. Benni Ola delivers smooth, hip house bars, while Dr. Chaii adds whispered chants and fired-up calls, channeling Afro-Caribbean soundsystem roots. It’s a tight mix of hip-hop, Afrobeatz, dancehall, and deep house that’s built to dominate dancefloors.

Dr. Chaii revealed: “I believe that music is the medicine and this song is no exception. We made a song that captures the energy of celebrating life and staying in your power, no matter what you’re going through. This one means a lot to me and I’m excited for the world to hear it!”
