Nigerian street-pop sensation Ayo Maff has teamed up with Zinoleesky for “Love Na Malaria,” a fresh collaboration bringing two voices together. The street-focused Afro-pop record pairs Ayo Maff’s raw street-poetry approach with Zinoleesky’s smooth melodic delivery.
The track arrived across digital streaming platforms after an earlier teaser from Ayo Maff, who introduced the collaboration with the caption “Love na Malaria” × BANKU.” The announcement sparked anticipation among fans before the song finally dropped.
On the writing side, “Love Na Malaria” builds on the idea behind Ayo Maff’s earlier 2026 hit “Malaria.” The familiar phrase “Love na malaria… e go catch you one day” also forms part of the song’s wider concept. So the record leans on a line fans already know, while pushing it into new territory.
What comes out is a meeting point between gritty storytelling and polished Afro-pop vocals. Ayo Maff handles the street side, but Zinoleesky carries the melody, and the two never crowd each other.
