YG Marley came in strong in the second verse with his vibes and different flows, giving the song a different rhythm and angle of love.

Pluto presido drops another one for the streets, and who knows the street better and gives them what they want better than YBNL boss, Olamide?
Shallipopi teams up with Baddo to give us Order, a high-intensity street vibe that brings the energy right from the start of the song. Shallipopi starts this tun with strong lyrics on his hustle, how far he has come and basically how he is “The Man” now. Trust Olamide to come with the memorable lyrics, catchy rhythms and bars that he is known to dish out. Definitely a party anthem, the internet would really love this jam as they can create a unique choreography to go with it.
Fido x Tiwa Savage – Awolowo Remix
Following the huge success of his single Awolowo, Fido comes with the remix of the single, and this time, he brings the Queen of Afrobeat, Tiwa Savage to grace the song with her soothing voice and style.
Still a banger no matter how many times you listen, Awolowo brings so much relatable issues especially on living on your terms, getting the money, and living life on an easy mode by prioritizing peace.

Mr. Eazi enlists Mugeez of R2Bees and D Jay for this one, and they title it For My Head. A tune that infuses the sounds of Ghana highlife with Afrobeats, For My Head perfectly blends these genres into one high-energy love ballad. Speaking on how far they all would go for the woman they love, the trio bring in their personal style and flow into the song which also doubles as a potential party tune.
