Darkoo has officially joined forces with Asake for the release of their cross-cultural anthem, “THAT GIRL!”.
Dropping as a prime summer Afro-Fusion contender, the record serves as the first official collaboration between the two chart-topping acts.
The high-profile track seamlessly connects London’s vibrant Afroswing movement with the dominant pulse of the Lagos street-pop scene.
Bringing her signature melodic vulnerability and low-register, charismatic rap delivery, Darkoo anchors the romantic focus.
Darkoo dictates the emotional pace during the catchy refrain and chorus, highlighting a specific partner who is “one in a million.”
On the other hand, Asake injects his unmistakable Fuji-infused street-pop melodies and dynamic vocal layering.
Asake delivers a verse stacked with his trademark Yoruba expressions and rhythmic smooth-talking as he commands his muse to take the vibe easy.
The chemistry between Darkoo and Asake is central to the song’s appeal. Both artists exude confidence and charisma.
Production-wise, “THAT GIRL!” stands out for its attention to detail, with production credits going to ENZO FRESH, FR3NCH, and Caspar Holloway.
Quotable Lyrics:
This girl is one in a million
That girl, one in a million
Darling, tell me what you’re really on
And you look so good with your pretty on
You’re sexy, but you’re not like her
She’s more than a one-nighter
She’s that girl, ooh (She’s that, that girl)
That girl, ooh (Hmm, oh, oh)
