Davido Joins ‘Bibi Marung’ Remix, Set to Boost Hit Record with Focalistic and South African Collaborators
Nigerian international hitmaker Davido is set to feature on the highly anticipated remix of “Bibi Marung,” the chart-topping track by Mr. Pilato, Ego Slimflow, and Tebogo G Mashego. The exciting news comes after a clip of Davido dancing to the remix surfaced on social media, sparking anticipation among fans.
Originally released in November 2024, “Bibi Marung” already features South African sensation Focalistic, with whom Davido has a strong collaborative history. The two artists previously worked together on the successful remix of “Ke Star” and the hit record “Champion Sound.” Davido’s appearance on the remix of “Bibi Marung” will mark his first collaboration of 2025, adding even more hype to the track.
The song has enjoyed massive success in South Africa, amassing over 17 million streams on Spotify, and is one of the country’s trending hits. With Davido’s guest verse, the song is expected to climb even higher on the charts. This collaboration also adds to Davido’s growing list of partnerships with South African stars, following his past hits like “Tchelete” with Mafikizolo, “The Sound” with DJ Buck and Uhuru, and “Juice Back” with Nasty C.
2025 is shaping up to be a significant year for Davido, who was recently nominated for Best African Music Performance at the 67th Grammys. His highly anticipated fifth album, 5ive, will drop on March 15, and “Bibi Marung” is set to be one of the standout moments of the year. The album has already seen two successful singles, “Awuke” featuring YG Marley and “Funds” featuring OdumoduBlvck and Chike. Fans are also looking forward to a feature from Omah Lay, who has confirmed his appearance on the project, which Davido has described as his best work yet.
As 2025 unfolds, Davido continues to solidify his place as one of Africa’s top musical exports, with the remix of “Bibi Marung” set to further elevate his global influence.
