Nigerian Afrobeats prince Oxlade releases today the new version of his global viral smash KU LO SA with GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum, and chart-topping singer/songwriter Camila Cabello – listen here.

“Camila was the only option I wanted on the remix because she is music and she also is a pure person, a pure soul, it was to me just a dream come true. KU LO SA is a special song to me personally, so it was something of a joy to see her resonate with the way I love the music itself and being excited as I am to put out the song. This made me feel extra special. She even called it “our” song,” Oxlade said about his new collaboration with Camila Cabillo.

Writing my part of the song was so easy and I knew this was going to be something special as soon as we started recording and working on the remix together,”Camila Cabello said.
