Taya by D’banj actually features a whole lineup: Zlatan, Timaya, BhadBoi OML, Kayswitch, and Specikinging. The track opens with a vibrant, high-tempo groove that exudes celebratory energy like D’banj calling out for a party, and no one’s backing down. With artists like Zlatan and Timaya alongside him, the song feels like a crew flexing together, each bringing their own flavor to the mix.
Lyrically, Taya translates to “tired” or “fed up.” The track is about exhaustion, but not in a defeatist way. D’banj and his collaborators talk about being tired of the hustle, the noise, the games, but they don’t just complain. They lean into the exhaustion and turn it into a boast, showing how they’ve been grinding, but they refuse to slow down.

[Intro]
Yo, Eskeez kill the rhythm and buss it
[Verse 1: D'Banj]
Kalo si W-bar
Kalo yo kalo jo kpa
Baby mi sha mi legba
Bami wi like a teacher

Sweetie baby my sugar
Jaiye bi Larry Gaaga
