Davido’s 10 Kilo carries similar lyrical themes, paying homage to body positivity while subtly weaving in Sultan’s influence.

Sound Sultan later remixed Orobo with Flavour in 2013, a version that enjoyed massive airplay across Nigeria and West Africa.

  Sound Sultan passed from cancer in July 2021.
