Famous Nigerian musician D’banj, who is celebrating 20 years in the industry, has sent Olamide, a fellow musician, his sincere gratitude for his contribution to his most recent song, “Koko.”
D’banj, real name Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo, asked followers to consider the meaning of the term “Koko” from 2004 to the present in a heartfelt Instagram post that included a video of him and pals dancing to the catchy song.
The song, which will be featured on D’banj’s upcoming album, is particularly meaningful because it was written by none other than the well-known YBNL leader, Olamide.
In an Instagram post, D’banj lavished Olamide with gratitude for giving him what he called “an amazing jam.”
Addressing his fans, D’banj posed the question;
“What does the Koko mean to you Since’04 and right now in 2024?” This query not only encourages nostalgia for longtime fans but also sparks curiosity among newer audiences about the evolution of the term over the years.
The collaboration between D’banj and Olamide has elicited enthusiastic responses from fans, who flooded the comments section with their thoughts.

Recall that recently, D’banj announced that he would release a new track named ‘Since 04’ to commemorate the beginning of his career 20 years ago.
D’banj reflected back on his remarkable career, which has spanned two decades and countless significant milestones, in a piece published on April 24, 2024.
The multi-award-winning celebrity recently celebrated his 20 years on stage by headlining Trace Live. As it coincides with the anniversary of his debut in 2004, he refers to his upcoming single, which is scheduled for release on May 3, 2024, as one of his best songs to date.
The Mo’hit crew, which includes Don Jazzy, Wande Coal, D Prince, Dr. Sid, and Kayswitch—whom he refers to as his brothers and with whom he established an incredible team—were honoured by D’banj, also known as Koko Master.
