Kadoon Gains Buzz with Viral Debut Single “Go Low”

Benue-born singer Kadoon Karen Bem Bula, professionally known as Kadoon, is rapidly gaining attention in Nigeria’s music scene with her debut single, Go Low.

The 18-year-old Trap Records Entertainment artist has become a viral sensation on TikTok, where the upbeat track has inspired thousands of user-generated videos and trending challenges.

Kadoon began recording music on her mobile phone while still in secondary school. Her talent caught the attention of Trap Records founder Akem Terver, also known as Boss Equation, who said, “She had that spark you can’t teach. The first time I heard her voice, I knew she could connect with this generation.”

Produced by Young Smith, Go Low features crisp drums, catchy melodies, and playful Afrobeats rhythms. Its danceable beat and relatable lyrics have resonated with young audiences, while influencers and dancers have fueled its popularity through the #GoLowChallenge. A Lagos-based DJ compared her potential to early Ayra Starr, noting her charm, vocals, and playful energy.

Despite comparisons to established stars, Kadoon emphasizes her focus on building her own identity. “Music has always been my way of saying the things I can’t explain. I love that people can dance to my songs but still feel something real inside them. I just want to be Kadoon,” she said.

The official Go Low music video, directed by Nedy Pictures, is set to premiere exclusively on Trace TV, a move expected to further expand her reach.
