Nigerian singer Paul ‘Play’ Dairo has released a new single, ‘Love in Tokyo,’ which features Nigerian rapper and record executive Olamide Badoo.

YBNL, Olamide’s record label, made a post on Friday with a snippet of the video, saying, “Love is in the air, and it’s taking us all the way to Tokyo! a Paul Play Dairo × @Olamide bring you ‘Love in Tokyo’- out today!”

Paul Play, son of juju music legend IK Dairo, is known for his classic hits like ‘Angel of my Life’ and ‘Forever’.

The artiste has been out of the music limelight since 2023 after his single ‘Jesu Olugbala’ featuring Psalmos.

In July 2023, he took to his social media account to respond to rumours about quitting music.

“It’s obvious that I took a pause from the mainstream, but I never stopped playing music or even doing shows and private parties,” said the artiste.
