Rema and Shallipopi, two superstars with Benin City roots, have joined forces for the electrifying tune, Benin Boys. The much-expected collaboration marks their first time working together, and hopefully, a sign of more to come.
Co-produced by Rema himself alongside Producer X, Benin Boys is a celebration of Benin City, its people and their rich heritage. As expected, Rema and Shallipopi switch into braggadocio mode, boasting about the steeze, swagger and success of a "Benin Boy." It's marvellous to see the impact Edo Boys are making on the world stage, a joy to behold.
The track is structured like a lyrical sparring session, with Rema and Shallipopi taking turns with verses that perfectly complement each other's flow. This back-and-forth energy is sure to keep listeners thrilled as they show what they've got in their bags of talent. Following his recent feature on King Promise's album, Shallipopi is clearly on a roll, and this collaboration with the international superstar Rema is just another feather in his cap.
With Benin Boys officially out now, music lovers everywhere have a potential hit on their hands. A beautiful creative partnership between Rema and Shallipopi? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure, Edo Boys are here to stay.
