This comes a few weeks after releasing the ‘Cricket Remix’ of the fan favorite single. The singer, songwriter, and record producer made the surprise announcement last night that he was recreating magic with the song; ‘Damn’, but this time alongside 6LACK. In the post, the 23-year-old is seen in studio vibing to it while still in production:

‘Damn’ is taken off Omah Lay’s acclaimed debut studio project ‘Get Layd‘ the EP that was dropped in May, this year. He has previously worked with acts Wizkid, DJ Tunez, and also appeared on one of my favorite songs at the moment “Infinity” which was taken off Olamide’s Carpe Diem album.

In the original version’s visuals, Omah references his surging fame & success while also paying homage to his home base of Lagos. In an interview with Complex, he revealed that ‘Damn’ was undeniably his favorite release off the EP, saying: ‘To be very honest, ‘Damn’ was easily my favorite song on the album,” Omah Lay told Complex.  I had fun making it and it had to be the only song I didn’t have to go back into the studio to change anything. I think it’s even one of the reasons I insisted we shoot the video last.”

On “DAMN” , Omah Lay perfects an ode to his unconditionally loving gal, despite his complex character as “a bad boy who does wrongs” but fears God.” It’s this interestingly typical interaction which influences much of the music, amidst other influences such as sex and substance. This new version features 6Lack and is a perfect blend of Afrobeat and Rap.

He announced the availability of the remix, while unveiling its artwork + snippet as well, and sharing links for fans to go check it out. 🔥
