Darkoo Drops Infectious New Single ‘Like Dat’
British-Nigerian artist Darkoo has unveiled her latest single, Like Dat, adding another vibrant track to her growing catalogue of genre-blending hits. The new release, produced by Sparbz, Enzo, and French, follows her recent offering Focus On Me (All The Sexy Girls In The Club) and continues her run of Afro-infused anthems.
Known for her breakout hit Gangsta with One Acen, which earned her a spot on the UK Singles Chart in 2019, and the fan-favourite Favourite Girl, Darkoo has consistently pushed the boundaries of Afro-swing. Like Dat is no exception, delivering smooth vocals over an infectious beat layered with rhythmic precision and melodic charm.
The track radiates confidence and flirtation, with lyrics like “I like the things you do / Girl, I’ll be good for you / I think I’m meant for you / Girl, hold me down, always” echoing themes of desire and connection. Its catchy chorus and dance-ready production have already earned it a warm reception from fans online.
Accompanying the release is a visually striking music video directed by Sam Fallover. The video captures the track’s energy with bold colours, expressive dance scenes, and style-forward aesthetics—further amplifying the single’s appeal.
Blending influences from both Lagos and London, Like Dat showcases Darkoo’s ability to merge cultures and genres with ease. Her growing list of collaborations – with names like Rema, Ayra Starr, and Tion Wayne – highlights her expanding reach and continued evolution as a standout voice in the global Afrobeats scene.
With Like Dat, Darkoo reaffirms her place as one of the most exciting artists shaping the sound of contemporary Afro-fusion.
