Released as one of the lead singles from Burna Boy’s Grammy-nominated album Love, Damini, “Last Last” blends UK Garage, Dancehall, and Afrobeats elements to create a unique sound that resonated with listeners worldwide. The song’s emotional narrative centres around the pain of a romantic breakup, a story many fans speculate reflects Burna Boy’s relationship with Jamaican-British rapper Stefflon Don.
The track’s infectious chorus became an instant anthem, which draws from the popular Nigerian social media saying “Everybody go chop breakfast” (meaning heartbreak is inevitable). This relatable message struck a chord with listeners, contributing to the song’s rapid commercial success.
“Last Last” achieved significant milestones, including multiple weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and an RIAA platinum certification. The single has also amassed a staggering 477 million streams on Spotify, making it Burna Boy’s most-streamed song as a lead artist on the platform.

More recently, Wale teamed up with OdumoduBlvck on the hit single “Blood on The Dance Floor,” which earned him a Headies nomination.
