Nigerian Afrobeats star Burna Boy is teaming up with Australian singer Sia for a remix of her recent track ‘Hey Boy’.
Taking to social media to make the announcement, Sia revealed that both the song and video would be coming this Thursday. She captioned the post simply with “Pucker up”.
Burna Boy called the song “one of my favorites” in a twitter announcement.
The original song is set to appear on Sia’s forthcoming album ‘Music’, due out February 12, which was written to accompany her new film of the same name.
The song is one of many international collaborations Burna Boy has scored in the past few years. The self-styled African Giant teamed up with British star Sam Smith in ‘My Oasis’ last year, and was featured in the UK number 1 single, ‘Own It,’ alongside Stormzy and Ed Sheeran.
More recently, he appeared with fellow Nigerian superstar Wizkid in the stylish new video for their collaborative effort, ‘Ginger.’
