Mayorkun drops 'Lose Control' on Coke Studio Africa 2023

Mayorkun’s journey in the music industry is nothing short of remarkable. He initially captured the spotlight with a cover of Davido’s hit single, Money, which caught the attention of the original artist himself, who discovered Mayorkun’s talent on Twitter.
