Chunga Vasadu is a bass-driven global club cut from Swedish duo PAPA Sound, blending electronic afrobeat with urban Latin energy. Sung in Swedish and Spanish, the track rides a bold, infectious groove led by an uncredited vocal from Colombian-Swedish artist Champen. Her powerful delivery adds attitude and heat, while PAPA Sound’s genre-bending production bridges dancehall, afrobeat and reggae with a punk-minded, fearless spirit.

ABOUT PAPA SOUND:
PAPA Sound, formed in 2020 by Paolo Albo and Patrik Arve, is a Swedish duo crafting genre-crossing, bass-driven music rooted in dancehall, afrobeat, and reggae. With a strong belief that attitude trumps perfection, their productions are energetic, raw, and always focused on the spark that lives in cultural fusion.
 - “90% of good music is about attitude,” say PAPA Sound. “We love working in the space between genres, and Lisa brought exactly the kind of fire we were looking for.”

Patrik Arve is also known as a founding member of Teddybears, the award-winning group behind hits like “Cobrastyle” featuring Mad Cobra, with over 50 million streams. Arve has collaborated with legends such as Beenie Man, Ninjaman, Elephant Man, Busy Signal, Wiley, Kano, and even Iggy Pop.
