Afropop icon D’Banj returns to the spotlight with a magnetic new single titled ‘Tobari’, featuring Nigerian nightlife legend DJ Obi and South African amapiano powerhouse DJ Maphorisa.
Known for shaping the sound of a generation, D’Banj taps into his signature charm and leaves you wanting more.
Produced for the dancefloor, ‘Tobari’ rides the intersection of Afro-house, amapiano, and playful street-pop.
The record opens with an exclusive-lifestyle flex, “Chilling now in Obi’s house, wearing Timbaland from head to toe”, setting a smooth tone of luxury and late-night groove. The flirtatious hook, “That my koko drives her wild,” throws back to D’Banj’s iconic style, mixing humour with bold confidence.
With call-and-response Yoruba chants like “To ba ri… ki le fe wa so?”, the track turns into a communal celebration. It’s built for sing-alongs, viral moments, and spontaneous dance circles from Lagos rooftops to Jo’burg clubs.
“‘Tobari’ is a celebration of sound and friendship,” says D’Banj. “It’s what happens when icons from different scenes connect; we bring the heat and invite the world to dance with us.”
D’banj’s latest single, ‘Tobari,’ is intended to be the soundtrack for the summer.
