US-based Nigerian singer Jay The King has his eyes set on a possible collaboration with the self-proclaimed African Giant, Burna Boy. The artist who recently announced the ‘Tease Me’ challenge where fans can win up to N50,000 each for participating on Tiktok and Triller said that one of his desires was to have a musical collaboration with Burna Boy.

“Burna Boy is one of the prides of Africa and getting into the studio with him would be a dream come true for me as an artist and as a person. I really cannot wait for this time because I know it will come soon and we’d make bangers together,” he said excitedly.

Born John James Olikpe, the singer has been on a steady rise to stardom. His latest single ‘Tease Me’, is a major bop from his recently released debut ‘Thinking Out Loud’ EP. It struck a major chord with fans, prompting Jay The King to give it that viral treatment with the challenge.

‘Thinking Out Loud’ is a six- track EP that consists of two of his previously released singles ‘Fi E Shaya’ and ‘Lono’. According to him, the EP is a compilation of danceable songs with catchy lyrics that talk about everyday life experiences.
