Money Badoo & Bony Fly Release “3NRGY” Alongside LYNDAN JAMES!

Money Badoo, Bony Fly and LYNDAN JAMES come together on “3NRGY”, a cross continental collaboration born from the Searching For Paradise studio sessions at Africa Rising Music Conference (ARMC) 2025, in collaboration with Paradise Sound System.

Each year, ARMC brings artists together beyond the stage – pairing creatives from different territories inside the studio to spark genuine exchange, new relationships, and music that wouldn’t exist otherwise. “3NRGY” is one of these outcomes: an artist-first release that captures the chemistry, momentum and shared creative language that emerges when borders fall away and collaboration leads.

For the first time, Swiss producer Bony Fly collaborates with South African artists, while Money Badoo connects across continents with a Geneva-based producer, marking a new chapter of creative exchange between Africa and Europe. Bony Fly was brought to South Africa with the support of Pro Helvetia Johannesburg, enabling the in-person studio session to take place in Johannesburg.

The track was created at Skys A Blu Studios, a Johannesburg-based studio space known for its all-in-one solutions for artists and labels, providing an environment where collaboration can move fluidly from idea to final record. All artists came together in the room to write and shape the track in real time, staying true to the spirit of the ARMC studio sessions.

Bony Fly, a Geneva-based producer and DJ, is recognised for blending Caribbean,dancehall and global sound-system influences into contemporary club and R&B spaces. On “3NRGY,” he brings rhythmic warmth and forward motion to the record. Money Badoo delivers a confident and emotionally charged performance, flexing her range as a versatile rapper, singer and songwriter. Her presence anchors the track while allowing space for experimentation and exchange.

The collaboration also features LYNDAN JAMES, a South African R&B and soul artist with a growing national profile, whose smooth melodic contribution adds depth and balance to the record. Co-produced by Not Benjamin, “3NRGY” sets the tone for the year ahead. Released via Paradise Sound System, the track arrives as ARMC prepares to announce its first headline speakers and conference partners for the upcoming edition, reinforcing its commitment to collaboration, innovation and meaningful global connection through music.

“3NRGY” is out now – a celebration of shared energy, creative exchange, and
cross-continental collaboration.
