Pushing his signature sound of hiplife, hip-hop, and Afrobeats to the forefront of the track, “Lavida Loca” is bursting with vibrancy from the outset. Showered with slick bars, razor-sharp flows, and silk-like melodies, Sarkodie has enlisted fellow hit-maker Lasmid for an infectious hook that instantly leaves you wanting more. Housing production from award-winning producer M.O.G Beatz [Kizz Daniel, King Promise, Kwesi Arthur & more], the trio delivers a seamless summer anthem, a soundtrack curated for the warmer season. A taste of what’s yet to arrive from Sarkodie this year, “Lavida Loca” is a must-spin!
In his own words, Sarkodie explains, “It’s about that time ‘summer time’ and it’s only right we capture the beautiful moments while we are outside with some amazing soundtrack and this new record ‘Lavida Loca’ does that perfectly! Big shouts to MOG on the production and Lasmid for creating one of the most simple but catchy hooks ever made … I want the world to have fun with this one.”
