The year 2024 has not been short of amazing songs that our artists have blessed our ears with and often forced music lovers to the edge of their seats and eventually to the dance floor to shake what they got.
This has been achieved through churning out singles. At times, artists have joined efforts to drop bangers that have topped charts.
As the year winds up, we look at some of the biggest collaborations that have rocked our airwaves on both mainstream media and online streaming platforms.
- Sipimika (Remix) – Yung Mulo feat. Sheebah
Initially, the song belonged to Yung Mulo as a single project. As it struggled to make a massive impact, Mulo got the idea of hooking up Sheebah for a remix, and in no time, it became a mega-hit on the land following the controversy that surrounded it that was sparked by Sheebah’s verse. The song has since garnered 1.8 m views on YouTube after seven months of its release.
- Swiririri – Kapeke feat. Rickman Manrick
