British-Asian artist Nayyah has released Bees & Honey, a collaborative single featuring reggae icons Apache Indian and Amlak Tafari. The track was produced by Mikey ‘Megahbass’ Fletcher, known for his work with Alborosie, and brings together reggae roots with contemporary trap rhythms. Filmed in Nayyah’s hometown of Llandudno, the video is now available on YouTube.

The song delivers a strong critique of social inequality — highlighting how those who work the hardest often receive the least — while also promoting resilience and self-belief.

A collaboration with musical heavyweights

Producer Mikey Fletcher recalled how the song began:

“Nayyah brought me this idea and a melody for the track. I tried out some reggae beats, but his unique style called for something different. I played with a trap rhythm idea, and it fitted like a glove.”

Amlak Tafari added his signature vocals and brought in Apache Indian, whose contribution was both a tribute to his global hit Boom Shack-A-Lak and a reimagining of his classic style.

Apache Indian praises Nayyah’s talent and vision

Apache Indian called the collaboration a “breath of fresh air” and commended Nayyah’s creativity:

“It was an honour for me to feature on this song, which has a fantastic video filmed in his home town. His album is nothing less than a masterpiece.”
