The collaboration follows WurlD’s 2024 project Don’t Get Used To This and Marioo’s Tanzanian chart successes like “Mi Amor.” WurlD gained recognition through early collaborations with Sarz and Show Dem Camp, developing his distinctive fusion of R&B and Afrobeat since his 2016 debut. Marioo brings East African melodic patterns to the track, expanding its regional appeal.
