    The song was released on November 24, 2017, and is arguably among Davido‘s top 10 best songs of all time, the song was given less attention because of lack of adequate hype, mainly because 2017 was phenomenal to him, prior to numerous hit releases and hence wasn’t promoted properly.

    The song was released unofficially as a leak in 2018, it was intended perhaps to not be officially released rather dash it out to the fans, but it turns out to be a great song, arguably also among his best songs of all time.

    Burna Boy was always up to his game when it comes to making a quality song, the chord created by Leriq on the song was amazing both taking the chorus simultaneously, it was released as an album song on L.I.F.E album in 2013 and wasn’t given much attention, perhaps not promoted as a single.

    A very calm vibe, sampled from K1 De Ultimate, it’s highlighted his ghetto story and highly rich in content, it was a very underrated song perhaps then Nigerians were all about high tempos songs from Olamide, Anifowose is a very suiting and melodious song.
