What if you could rewrite your story? That’s the question InDuna poses and answers in his bold new single ‘Go High,’ the first release from his upcoming sophomore EP of the same name, set for release on 28 July.

The South African-born, New Zealand-based artist continues his steady streak of emotionally honest Afro-pop bangers with a track that blends melodic groove, vulnerability, and power.

“It’s about breaking cycles,” says InDuna. “Choosing to believe in something bigger than what you were handed. And becoming the version of yourself you’ve always seen in your head.”

Backed by smooth rhythms, ‘Go High’ captures what listeners have come to love about InDuna: lyrical honesty, vibrant energy, and a genre-blending sound rooted in lived experience.

His latest release is no outlier,  it’s part of a consistent pattern. InDuna has steadily built one of the most compelling Afro-fusion catalogues in Aotearoa, marked by standout releases:

• ‘Dreams’ – No. 6 on the NZ Hot Singles Chart.
• ‘All My Love’ – No. 1 on Apple Music Dance charts (NZ & PNG.
• ‘Black Man Running’ – No. 1 on RadioActive Top 11, Top 3 on SRN and iTunes Hip-Hop (NZ.
• ‘Dreams’ was also awarded Best Original Song at the Online Web Fest for the documentary Ink and Gold: An Artist’s Journey to Olympic Glory.

In 2024, InDuna was recognised internationally with the The King’s Trust, formally known as Prince’s Trust Global Young Achiever Award, solidifying his place as a rising cultural force.

With his upcoming EP set for release 28 July, this single is more than a moment, it’s the start of a bigger story.
