Ijó Yá (feat. Dele Sosimi & Lizzy Dosunmu)

Lovemonk is thrilled to present a collaboration that carries a special kind of significance. 'Ijó Yá' sees long-time Lovemonk amigo Kiko Navarro join forces with Afrobeat icon Dele Sosimi and Lizzy Dosunmu. They meet like old friends under carnival lights, their grooves falling into place with effortless warmth. Together they deliver a soulful, propulsive and exuberant tune, the kind you just don't want to leave. No tricks, just feel. Voilaaa rounds things off by offering an irresistible remix with his signature magic touch.

The track moves with confident disco and boogie heat, aptly Nigerian-informed, unfolding through a groove that feels expansive, physical and effortless at once.

Lizzy Dosunmu's voice leads the song with a magnetic presence. Her vocal lines are beautifully supported by Dele Sosimi's backing vocals, adding depth, warmth and a sense of communal strength. The lyrics resonate with the zeitgeist, with reflections on words, actions and their consequences woven into call-and-response chants and Yoruba phrases. In a time when language carries weight and actions echo loudly, the song taps into a broader collective awareness.

At the centre of it all is the exchange between Kiko Navarro and Dele Sosimi – a collaboration marked by intuition and flow, where ideas lock in quickly and move with confidence.

On the flip, Voilaaa takes the track somewhere else entirely. His remix is unmistakably Voilaaa: elastic, funky and sun-soaked, stretching the groove into a looser shape while keeping the original's energy and intent fully alive.
