A Fresh Push For “Splendid”
South London duo Osaze & Marcus have officially begun a fresh promotional campaign for their track “Splendid”, launching a brand new dance challenge across TikTok as they continue building momentum online ahead of the summer.
The brothers, who have steadily developed a growing fan base across Sutton and wider South London over recent years, decided to revisit the track after noticing continued positive reactions from supporters during live previews and social media teasers. Rather than allowing the song to sit in the background, the duo made the decision to push “Splendid” aggressively through short-form content and community engagement.
The Dance Challenge Begins
At the centre of the rollout is a new dance challenge designed to encourage fans to create their own videos using the sound. The challenge has already started circulating amongst supporters, with clips appearing across TikTok and Instagram as local audiences begin interacting with the record.
Speaking on the campaign, Osaze & Marcus explained that they felt the song still had significant untapped potential and deserved a stronger push.
“Sometimes you can just feel when a song still has life,” the duo said. “Every time we previewed it or played it on live, people kept asking about it. We knew we had to come back properly with it.”
Building From Grassroots Support
The relaunch marks an important moment in the duo’s journey as they continue transitioning from local buzz into wider recognition. Over the past few years, Osaze & Marcus have built a reputation for blending melodic rap, Afrobeats and South London energy into a style that strongly connects with younger audiences.
The duo first gained wider attention through viral covers and community performances before developing their own catalogue of original music, including tracks such as “Discoteca”, “Busy” and “Obsessed”. Their consistent social media presence and grassroots support throughout Sutton have helped establish them as one of the borough’s most recognisable young music acts.
Aiming For A Bigger Breakthrough
With TikTok continuing to play a major role in breaking new artists and records, Osaze & Marcus are hoping the dance challenge will help introduce “Splendid” to an even wider audience beyond their existing supporters.
The pair have spent recent weeks actively teasing the track through TikTok Lives, snippets and fan interactions, building anticipation ahead of the next phase of releases planned for 2026.
As momentum around the challenge continues growing, Osaze & Marcus remain focused on consistency, community engagement and proving themselves as more than just another emerging act from South London.
For now, all eyes are on “Splendid” as the duo attempt to turn online excitement into a genuine breakout moment.
