American singer and songwriter Chris Brown has just released his “11:11” deluxe album where he featured Nigerian superstar Davido on the track titled “Hmmm”. This marks their seventh collaboration.
“Hmmm” is a track that combines Chris Brown’s R&B style with Davido’s Afrobeats flair. The song has already gained traction, with over 200,000 views on YouTube and more than three million streams on Spotify.
Additionally, his pidgin english lyrics add a unique flavour to the song, making it stand out among other collaborations.
His verse in “Hmmm” includes the following lines in pidgin English:
[Verse 2]
Big bakassi (Mm-hmm)

She wanna get freaky, freaky (She wanna get freaky)
Make your boyfriend no go dey vex

You wey I see for ozumbadiwe (Mm-hmm)
[Refrain]

The two artists have a total of 6 songs together. “Hmmm” marks the sixth collaboration between the two artists among their other projects like:
