Rapper Blaqbonez has teamed up with Asake on “Chanel,” a rap-meets-Afrobeats crossover that has become one of the biggest records of the year, leading the Nigeria Top 100 for four consecutive weeks.
The single pairs Blaqbonez’s sharp, confident bars with Asake’s melodic Yoruba-inflected hooks, a combination that has resonated widely across both the rap and Afrobeats audiences.
Blaqbonez, known for his self-proclaimed “Best Rapper in Africa” status and a loyal fanbase built on his unorthodox, humorous style, continues to expand his range with high-profile collaborations across genres.
Asake brings his now-signature fuji-tinged melodic delivery to the record, a style that has made him one of Afrobeats’ most consistent hitmakers since his 2022 breakout.
“Chanel” has also spawned a widely circulated extended version featuring Wande Coal, further extending its reach and cementing its place as one of the year’s biggest crossover rap and Afrobeats hits.
Chanel by Blaqbonez featuring Asake is available on all streaming platforms.
