'Tumeke' The Brand New Single and Music Video from Rei
Fresh from two NZ Music Award
nominations, Rei is stoked to bring you a brand new music
video for his new single Tumeke. He is
currently halfway through his national tour across the
country, making Tumeke the perfect drop
with NZ summer just around the
corner.
‘Tumeke’ is a hip hop/electro
mashup all about feeling like you’re at the top of your
game while encouraging others to rise to the challenge. Be a
leader, be a rangatira, be your own Chief!
Co-directed by
Whangarei’s Byron Luders, the music video follows Rei
through some of his grounding environments,
from the bush to the
beach, to the concrete
jungle.
‘Tumeke’ is the latest single from Rei’s just-released-album ‘The Bridge’. The album follows up on Rei’s success with ‘Good Mood’ (track #2) which recently hit #1 on the Spotify United States Viral Chart, beating out Ariana Grande’s hit ‘thank u, next’ for the top spot. It also charted on the UK, Canada and NZ viral playlists, gaining over 2.4 million streams. Rei is also nominated for Best RnB album and Best Māori artists at the upcoming New Zealand Music Awards.
‘Tumeke’ is mixed and mastered by the legendary Chris Chetland, who has credits for Snoop Dogg, Bebe Rexha, Dua Lipa and Savage. The tune was also co-produced by D. Love (Savage, Timmy Trumpet, Pieter T).
