Toma by Vyroota
“Toma” is the brand-new collaborative single from Ugandan artist Vyroota and legendary producer Nessim Pan Production. Officially released on April 10, 2026, it has immediately become a top-tier track on the “Ugandan Hot 50” charts this week.
Here is why “Toma” is the talk of the town right now:
The Meaning: “Take”
The title “Toma” translates to “Take” (often used in the context of “take it” or “receive it”).
- The Message: It’s a smooth, romantic Afropop track where Vyroota pours out his affection. He’s essentially telling his partner to “take” all the love, time, and commitment he has to offer. It follows his signature style of being melodic yet soulful, making it a favorite for “dedicated” playlists.
- The Lyrics: Written by Lyrical Tazzy and Musigazi Abdul Aziz, the song is being praised for its poetic simplicity. It captures the feeling of a honeymoon phase where everything feels “just right.”
The Production: The Nessim Magic
This isn’t just a Vyroota song; it’s a full collaboration with Nessim, who is credited as a primary artist and producer.
- The Sound: Nessim has given the track a crisp, high-energy Afrobeats bounce that is perfectly balanced with Vyroota’s soft vocals.
- The Release: It was released as a 3 track single pack, including the Official Version, the Instrumental, and a hauntingly beautiful Acapella version. The acapella version has already become a favorite for producers looking to create unofficial remixes.
Why it’s a April 2026 Trend
- The “Toma” TikTok Challenge: In just the last 10 days, the song has sparked a massive dance and “vibing” challenge. Because the beat is so infectious, Ugandan creators are using it to show off their latest fashion or romantic “dinner date” setups.
- Rapid Growth: Within its first week, “Toma” has cleared hundreds of thousands of streams across Audiomack and Spotify, proving that the Vyroota-Nessim chemistry is a guaranteed hit maker.
- Visual Appeal: The official music video features vibrant, high fashion aesthetics that have helped it trend on YouTube’s music category in East Africa since its premiere.
