The title Bunda, a slang term derived from Portuguese meaning “buttocks,” reflects Del B’s admiration for naturally curvy women. Speaking on the inspiration behind the track, Del B shares:
“I wanted to creatively express my love for women with curves and as most millennials say, women with ‘nyash’. I’m an African man who appreciates and prefers the natural born body of a Black African woman.”
Beyond the celebration of physical beauty, Bunda dives into themes of emotional clarity and no-strings-attached intimacy. With lyrics like, “I’m not here for the love no / I’m not here for the care / ain’t got no feelings to catch oh / bring your body over here,” Del B emphasizes the importance of transparency in modern romance.
“When I say that, I’m talking about no strings attached and open relationships. I think the more honest you are with what you want, the less complications there will be,” he explains.
