Nasboi has joined forces with industry heavyweights Falz and 2Face for his latest single “Ashawo,” a track that cleverly transforms the tale of a reformed playboy into a humorous love story.
A Onerpm statement says the song is featured on Nasboi’s debut project “INIT.”
With over 100 million streams already under his belt, Nasboi has established himself as a unique voice in the Nigerian music scene, successfully bridging his comedic background with musical storytelling. “Ashawo” showcases this distinctive blend, offering listeners a refreshing perspective on romantic transformation.
The track’s narrative follows a former ladies’ man who finds himself completely transformed by love, with Nasboi’s charming vocals leading the storytelling. The addition of Falz’s signature witty wordplay and 2Face’s smooth, veteran delivery creates a dynamic musical experience that resonates with both humour and heart.
The collaboration clearly brings out the best in all three artistes.
Particularly noteworthy is Falz’s clever verse, where he quips “’Look at the way she give me leg over, 13 missed calls on her cellular,” perfectly capturing the essence of being lovestruck through vernacular.
Known primarily for his comedy content and street appeal, Nasboi appears to be making a calculated transition into music’s mainstream. This strategic collaboration with two of Nigeria’s most respected artistes signals his serious intentions in the music industry, while staying true to his comedic roots.
The song is currently available on all major streaming platforms, marking what industry observers believe could be a significant moment in Nasboi’s evolution from social media comedian to legitimate musical artiste.
