The actress’s appearance has attracted attention because of the unusual pairing of the veteran Yoruba film star with one of Nigeria’s younger Afrobeats performers.

In a snippet shared on YouTube, Khaid displays dance moves inspired by the late American pop icon Michael Jackson before Iya Gbonkan joins him on the dance floor.

The singer appears in a youthful streetwear outfit featuring blue and red three-quarter-length trousers, while the actress maintains her traditional style in a red outfit.

Another scene shows the pair enjoying themselves together, with the veteran actress eventually showing off her own dance moves.

The video takes a further unexpected turn towards the end when a group of reverend sisters appear and attempt to stop the singer.

The song, Yasin, was released on Friday and features Saheed Osupa, bringing together contemporary Afrobeats and traditional Fuji music.

Khaid, whose real name is Sulaimon Solomon, rose to prominence in 2022 after signing with Neville Records. His breakout single, With You, helped establish him as one of the emerging voices in Nigeria’s Afrobeats scene.

Iya Gbonkan, meanwhile, is a respected veteran of Yoruba-language cinema, with a career spanning several decades.
