Abuja-based Nigerian rapper, Zilla Oaks is back with his first single of the year, “A Lot” featuring South African rapper, Shouldbeyuang.
This release earns him his first solo-effort international feature and his second international collaboration since working with UK rapper BackRoad Gee.
Produced by longtime collaborator The Shwofff, the single sees Zilla Oaks embracing his trap roots for the first time since 2023’s “More More”. Over the past year, Zilla has experimented with Afrobeats, swing, and Amapiano, blending them with his signature rap style. However, this time, he delivers a dark and cinematic trap anthem that embodies the dominance of the Nigerian trap scene, painting a fictional underworld of mob bosses, cartels, and street power struggles.
The single sets the stage for Zilla Oaks’ upcoming project, “NO ZZZZ 3”, the third installment in the fan-favorite “NO ZZZZ” series, rumored to drop later this year.
