Jamaican artist Byron Messia is experiencing a significant milestone in 2023, with his track "Talibans" becoming a strong contender for the summer anthem. Part of his successful "No Love" project, the song's music video has already garnered over 36 million views. Now, to elevate its status further, Messia has teamed up with Burna Boy for a new remix named "Talibans II."
The original version of "Talibans" earned acclaim from critics, with The FADER's Brandon Callender praising Messia's vocal prowess and captivating groove. Released as part of his January drop, "No Love" project, the song propelled Messia's career to new heights.
Sealing the song's fate, Messia enlisted Burna Boy for the remix, a fitting collaboration that comes amidst the "Afrobeats vs dancehall" debate among music purists.
