Nigerian Afrobeats artist Omah Lay joins forces with American hip-hop artist Gunna on a fresh joint track named “BACK TO LAGOS,” uniting two highly individual style creators in modern music. The song merges Omah Lay’s emotionally resonant, soulful vocal performance with Gunna’s sleek, melodic cadence, forging an international crossover that connects Afrobeats with American rap.
Each performer contributes their trademark approach, producing a refined track defined by strong harmonies, mood-setting production, and natural dynamic synergy. This joint release forms a key component of Omah Lay’s expanded project, Clarity of Mind Extended, introducing another notable layer to the artist’s recent collection.

[Intro]
Mhm, mm, hm, mm-mm-mm
Mhm, mm, hm, mm-mm-mm
Mhm, mm, hm, mm-mm-mm

[Verse 1: OMAH LAY]
Every day, baguettes on
Always in the heavens
Apple juice, Cana’ and Backwoods
Hotel don evict us
Sorry, I got to push the meeting later
Jean-Paul Gaultier
I’m goin’ back to Lagos
One thousand acres, still too close to the neighbours
I’m runnin’ out of patience, now, I don’t like
[Refrain: OMAH LAY]
Mhm, mm, hm, mm-mm-mm

[Verse 2: Gunna]
Huh, I’ve been goin’ all year (All year)
Wake up, I do push-ups, I go burpee (Go burpee)
They ain’t give me shit, I had to earn it
Now, I got alligator straight from Hermès
That lil’ Benz, you can park it (That lil’ Benz, you can park it)
Rosewood suite, my new apartment (New apartment)
Lord know they gon’ protect the artist (‘Tеct the artist, Wunna)
Ain’t no threat, that’s a promise
