Omah Lay Shares Playlist Favorites, Shouts Out Strei
Omah Lay just let fans peek inside his personal playlist, and the picks are surprising everyone. In a recent interview via Raedio, the Port Harcourt star opened up about the six songs he currently plays on repeat. The list blends soul classics with fresh Afrobeats voices, and one name stands out above the rest.
Omah Lay’s Top Six Songs Right Now
The singer named Billy Paul’s “Me & Mrs. Jones” as one of his go-to tracks. He also included Cleo Sol’s “Know That You Are Loved” and Moon Soul’s “Love Again” on the list. Furthermore, he pointed to Thee Sacred Souls’ “Live For You” as a constant favorite.
His own collaboration with Elmah, “Coping Mechanism,” also made the cut. Meanwhile, the sixth pick came from a rising talent that many fans are only just discovering.
Strei’s Obobe Steals The Spotlight
Omah Lay singled out Strei’s “Obobe” as the standout of his current rotation. The moody Afromood track comes off Strei’s NIGHT EP, released earlier this year. According to the singer, the song’s tone and delivery set it apart from everything else on his playlist.
Strei has been steadily building a following with the seven-track project. Tracks like “Anxiety” and “Jo” have already picked up traction across streaming platforms. However, “Obobe” appears to be the one connecting hardest with listeners.
Why This Omah Lay Playlist Reveal Matters
The timing of this reveal is notable. Fans have been debating streaming numbers for major acts like Rema, Burna Boy, and Omah Lay himself. His own hit “Soso” recently crossed 422 million streams on Spotify.
Despite that success, Omah Lay chose to shine a light on newer names instead. At AfrobeatsGlobal, we love seeing established stars use their platform this way. It gives emerging acts like Strei a real shot at wider recognition.
