D’Banj Returns with Magnetic New Single “Tobari” Featuring DJ Obi and DJ Maphorisa
Afropop icon D’Banj is back in the spotlight with his magnetic new single, “Tobari,” a collaboration featuring Nigerian nightlife legend DJ Obi and South African amapiano powerhouse DJ Maphorisa. Known for shaping the sound of a generation, D’Banj taps into his signature charm and iconic style, leaving fans wanting more.
Produced for the dancefloor, “Tobari” expertly navigates the intersection of Afro-house, amapiano, and playful street-pop. The record opens with an exclusive-lifestyle flex, “Chilling now in Obi’s house, wearing Timbaland from head to toe,” setting a smooth tone of luxury and late-night groove. The flirtatious hook, “That my koko drives her wild,” is a nostalgic nod to D’Banj’s iconic style, mixing humor with bold confidence.
With call-and-response Yoruba chants like “To ba ri… ki le fe wa so?”, the track transforms into a communal celebration built for sing-alongs, viral moments, and spontaneous dance circles from Lagos rooftops to Jo’burg clubs.
“‘Tobari’ is a celebration of sound and friendship,” says D’Banj. “It’s what happens when icons from different scenes connect; we bring the heat and invite the world to dance with us.”
