Cobuz & Bustta Unite Three Languages and Two Continents on "Starry Eyes"
The Medellín duo's most boundary-dissolving record yet, ft. Justin Quiles & Sofiya Nzau — out now on Ultra Records.
Cobuz & Bustta have never been interested in staying in one lane, and "Starry Eyes" is their most ambitious proof yet. The Medellín-based duo linked up with Justin Quiles — the songwriter behind global smash "Bichota" — and Kenyan breakout Sofiya Nzau to create something that doesn't have a clean genre address. English, Spanish, and Kikuyu trade bars over a beat that moves between Latin American warmth and East African rhythm without ever losing its footing on a dancefloor.
What makes it work is the emotional logic underneath the eclecticism. Quiles and Nzau's alternating melodies carry a genuine sense of celebration — music and movement as a universal language, not a concept but a feeling. The synth chords hit that particular sweet spot between euphoric and nostalgic, the kind that makes a room lift without knowing exactly why.
The duo brought "Starry Eyes" to one of the biggest stages of the year, debuting it live during their DJ set at F1 Miami — fitting for a record built on the thrill of momentum. Cobuz & Bustta are building something real here, and this is the sound of that blueprint getting clearer.
