Shallipopi – Laho (Remix) Ft. Burna Boy
Laho (Remix) – Shallipopi Ft. Burna Boy is a fiery blend of street-hop and Afro-fusion, uniting two bold Nigerian voices to amplify the original track’s swagger and cultural weight.
With Laho (Remix), Shallipopi upgrades his viral street anthem into a full-blown Afro-fusion spectacle by teaming up with Grammy-winning heavyweight Burna Boy. The collaboration isn’t just a remix—it’s a moment. Known for his coded slang, witty delivery, and unapologetic street identity, Shallipopi brings his raw charisma to the remix, while Burna Boy adds depth, range, and global appeal. Together, they turn Laho into a multidimensional hit that retains its street-born identity while rising to international standards.
Thematically, Laho (Remix) remains rooted in self-confidence, hustle pride, and street-savvy rebellion. However, with Burna Boy’s verse in the mix, the song stretches into broader territory—touching on resilience, self-made success, and the audacity to thrive despite criticism or doubt. There’s a playful arrogance that runs through both artists’ performances, but beneath that bravado lies a strong message: be original, take your own path, and never apologize for shining. This remix elevates the original message from local street motivation to a pan-African declaration of self-worth.
The production keeps the infectious bounce of the original but with richer layers and more polish. Built on a fusion of Benin street-hop rhythms and Afro-fusion textures, the beat now includes more atmospheric synths, dynamic drum transitions, and subtle backing vocals that fill the soundscape without overcrowding it. There’s a noticeable boost in bass and sonic clarity, giving the remix a fuller, more international feel while still preserving the rawness that fans loved in the first version. The beat is carefully arranged to give both Shallipopi and Burna Boy space to express their unique styles without overshadowing each other.
Shallipopi remains true to form in his delivery—fast, fluid, and filled with coded lingo that fans instantly latch onto. His charisma is unfiltered, and he raps with the same breathless energy that made him a breakout name in Nigerian street music. What’s impressive is how he doesn’t shrink in Burna Boy’s presence—instead, he sounds even more confident, as if spurred on by the star power beside him.
Burna Boy’s contribution is masterful. He steps into the remix like a veteran who knows exactly how to ride any beat. His verse blends Yoruba and English, weaving socio-political commentary into clever wordplay. His flow is smooth and commanding, offering a contrast to Shallipopi’s youthful swagger. While Shallipopi plays the rebel, Burna is the elder statesman who’s already conquered the system—and now returns to vibe with the next generation. Their chemistry doesn’t feel forced; it feels organic, a passing of the torch laced with mutual respect.
Lyrically, the remix retains the coded, chant-worthy nature of the original, but Burna’s input adds more quotable moments with broader appeal. The remix thrives on energy, not just lyrical complexity. Both artists throw in slick lines that fans will quote in captions, challenges, and social media skits. The slang-heavy verses remain proudly local in flavor, yet the global rhythm of the beat makes it resonate beyond Nigerian borders.
Fan reactions have been electric. Upon release, Laho (Remix) trended across Nigerian social media, with fans calling it “a cultural reset” and praising Shallipopi for holding his own next to Burna. Many viewed it as a defining moment in his career—a stamp of approval from one of Africa’s most successful global stars. DJs immediately slotted it into club rotations, and the remix sparked new life into the original song, which already had a strong presence on TikTok and Instagram. Playlists across Apple Music, Spotify, and Audiomack quickly picked it up, making it one of the most buzzed-about remixes of the year.
For Shallipopi, this collaboration is a milestone. It cements his transition from viral sensation to serious contender in Nigeria’s evolving music scene. He’s no longer just the street king of slang and rhythm—he’s a rising force being recognized by the industry’s elite. For Burna Boy, the remix reinforces his ongoing relevance and versatility. He doesn’t just align with international acts—he collaborates with the culture’s next voices, staying connected to the streets that birthed his sound.
In all, Laho (Remix) is more than a musical upgrade—it’s a cultural handshake between two different generations of Nigerian music. It celebrates originality, reinvention, and the power of collaboration in shaping the future of Afrobeat and street music. Whether you’re vibing in Lagos, London, or Johannesburg, this remix delivers a perfect balance of grit and groove.
