Afrobeats Meets Dancehall: Afro x Caribbean

Da Body Deh

Mr Eazi and Dre Skull team up for new single “Sekkle & Bop” featuring Popcaan.
On “Sekkle & Bop,” Dre Skull cooks up the kind of bashment riddim that has always resonated on dancefloors around the world. Minimal, with soundsystem ready low end and anchored by an earworming flute melody, it serves as the foundation for Mr Eazi and Popcaan to take control. Both vocalists ride the riddim with signature charisma and ease–effortlessly trading flows that conjure up timeless dancehall classics, commanding dancers and continuously building the energy.

A deft blend of African and Caribbean vibes that’s sure to get waistlines moving from Lagos to Kingston, the track combines Joeboy’s patois-inflected lyrics and soulful production from P.Priime  for an all-out bashment party banger.  

The Nigerian singer has played with island influences before, spicing his 2021 smash hit “Sip (Alcohol)” with Jamaican patois, but “Likkle Riddim” takes a more explicit trip to the dancehall, with Joeboy narrating an intimate dancefloor encounter like a true gyalist.

Nobody: The Extended Playlist (Worldwide Remixes) features 12 new versions of this runaway smash, each featuring guests from different regions across Africa and worldwide. Featured acts include Colombian reggaeton star Dylan Fuentes (who appears on the “Nobody” Latin Remix); Toronto rap icon Kardinal Offishall, who joins Jayd Ink and Toronto Raptors DJ 4Korners on the “Nobody” Canada Remix; and Jamaican superstar Konshens, who appears alongside Ghana’s J.Derobie on a dancehall version of the track. The “Nobody (Trinidad Remix)” takes things even deeper into the Caribbean with an appearance from soca superstar, Voice. 
Africa-wise, the “Nobody (Icons Remix),” already a local hit in Nigeria since dropping a week ago, features Nigerian social media and reality TV star Laycon while two different rap remixes feature versions of the song in Nigeria’s Igbo and Hausa languages. The “Amapiano Remix” highlights the exciting new afro-house sound exploding out of South African right now with an appearance from that country’s Focalistic. Other features include Kuwait’s Daffy and Saudi Arabia’s MazMars (on “The Middle East Remix”) and France’s Tayc on a French-language remix. 
“‘Nobody’ is one of the year’s biggest afrobeats hits so it was only right for me to reach out to different amazing artists that are leaders in the territory they're from to make it truly a worldwide affair,” DJ Neptune says.
