Ever stumbled upon a song so catchy you couldn’t help but replay it five times in a row? That’s the magic of Aya Nakamura.

If you haven’t yet fallen under the spell of this Franco-Malian pop sensation, brace yourself—because these five tracks will have you hitting “add to playlist” before the first chorus ends.

1. “Djadja” (2018)

This breakout hit isn’t just a song; it’s a cultural reset.

With its hypnotic Afrobeat rhythm and Nakamura’s sassy, dismissive lyrics (“Djadja, tu mens”—”Djadja, you’re lying”), it became an anthem for calling out liars and haters.

The track went viral globally, even inspiring a TikTok dance craze, and cemented her as a force in modern pop.

2. “Copines” (2018)

Imagine a girls’ night out distilled into three minutes of pure energy—that’s “Copines.”

Its bouncy production blends Afropop with French rap, while Nakamura’s playful confidence (“J’ai trop de copines”—”I have too many girlfriends”) makes it irresistible.

Fun fact: This was the song that made former French President François Hollande a self-proclaimed fan!

3. “Pookie” (2020)

If you need a mood booster, press play on this glittery, reggaeton-infused bop.

The chorus is so addictive, you’ll be chanting “Pookie, pookie” like a mantra.

It’s Nakamura at her most carefree, proving she can turn any phrase into a hook that sticks like glue.

4. “Plus jamais” ft. Stormzy (2021)

Here, Nakamura flaunts her versatility, teaming up with British grime king Stormzy for a melancholic yet groovy breakup anthem.

The blend of her airy vocals and Stormzy’s gritty verses creates a delicious contrast, while the Afroswing beat keeps you swaying.

Proof that heartbreak has never sounded this danceable.

5. “Baby” (2023)

Fresh off her latest album, “DNK,” this track is a masterclass in seduction.

The production drips with sleek, futuristic R&B vibes, and Nakamura’s whispery vocals are pure ear candy.

It’s the kind of song that makes you want to turn the lights low and move—slowly.

From viral smackdowns (“Djadja”) to sultry slow jams (“Baby”), Aya Nakamura’s discography is a treasure chest of modern pop brilliance.

So, which track stole your heart? Hit play, and welcome to the fandom—you’re here for life.
