Niniola’s “Chelete Moleko,” featuring South African artist Smangori, is a smart meeting point between Nigerian Afro-House and South African Amapiano, and one of the standout moments on “Press Play.” Niniola rides the groove with ease, her voice slipping perfectly into the rhythm’s pockets. There’s a sensual warmth in how she phrases each line, giving the track quite a pull. What really makes the song work is how naturally both styles lock in, with neither sound overpowering the other. It feels like a genuine exchange, the kind of collaboration that keeps you dancing without forcing it.

Your body dey hot please cool it down
I think you're moving way too fast
Don't kill your brother because of money (Because of money)
Don't sell your sister because of money
I know the pressure is high, the country's hard
Keep on working, ogun ìṣe, múra sí ṣe (Múra sí ṣe)

Chelete moleko, chelete moleko
Moleko ke chelete, moleko ke chelete
