If there’s one thing East and West Africa do well, it’s music — and when two queens from both ends come together, you just know it’s going to be fire. Zuchu and Yemi Alade’s new release Lollipop is exactly that: sweet, spicy, and impossible to ignore. With over 227K views in just 3 days, this collab is quickly becoming a fan favorite — and for all the right reasons.

Zuchu, Tanzania’s very own powerhouse signed under WCB, has mastered the art of blending Swahili lyricism with global pop influence. In Lollipop, she takes it a step further by inviting Nigeria’s Mama Africa, Yemi Alade, whose energy and vocal depth elevate the track into a full-blown afro-pop anthem.

The beat? Infectious. It’s that mid-tempo, dancehall-inspired rhythm that makes you move without thinking. It’s fun, cheeky, and flirty — the kind of sound that instantly transports you to a rooftop party or late-night cruise with your girls. The production is crisp, giving both artists room to shine without crowding the vibe.

Lyrically, Lollipop is playful and daring. It’s a flirt-filled exchange that teases romance, confidence, and feminine charm. Zuchu brings her soft yet commanding tone while Yemi balances it out with her signature sass and powerhouse vocals. The chemistry? Unmatched. It doesn’t feel like a forced collab — it’s two women owning their space, their sound, and their style.

And the visuals? Colourful, glossy, and unapologetically bold. Think vibrant outfits, smooth choreography, and enough attitude to match the title. It’s clear this wasn’t just a song — it was a statement.

For fans of both artists, Lollipop is a sweet surprise that lives up to the hype. For the rest of us? It’s proof that African female artists aren’t just holding their own — they’re running the game.

So, if you haven’t already hit play, what are you waiting for? Add Lollipop to your weekend playlist, turn the volume up, and get ready to vibe.
