African Queen, released in 2004, was 2Baba’s first hit song after he left his former music group “Plantashun Boiz.” It was a track off his Face 2 Face album.
The song released 19 years ago is one of the pacesetters that trended beyond the shores of Nigeria, opening the doors for every other song to be released after it.
