“Laho II” is a vibrant remix of Shallipopi's hit street anthem, featuring Grammy-winning Afro-fusion star Burna Boy. Released on April 25, 2025, under Plutomania Records, the track blends Shallipopi's signature street-hop energy with Burna Boy's global Afrobeat flair. Produced by Progrex, it builds on the original “Laho,” which amassed over 43 million streams, with richer synths and a heavier bassline.
The song fuses Shallipopi's Benin City-inspired slang and witty lyricism with Burna Boy's commanding verses about self-respect and hustle. Lines like “ẹ gunmwẹn dẹ ọ, lahọ, ni paste aza, lahọ” and Burna's “no take my kindness for weakness” create a dynamic, catchy vibe that resonates with fans of Nigerian street music and Afrobeats. Its infectious chorus and local Edo lingo make it a cultural standout.
Debuted live at Burna Boy's historic sold-out Stade de France concert on April 19, 2025, “Laho II” became an instant crowd-pleaser, with viral clips amplifying its reach. The official music video, released April 29, 2025, showcases the duo's chemistry through lively stage and street scenes, cementing the track as a cross-continental anthem for Nigeria's street culture and global Afrobeats fans.
