Lagos on a Friday evening is pure electricity. Traffic is heavy but spirits are light, because everyone knows the weekend has its own rhythm. Out here, the city doesn’t really come alive until the right track drops, the type of song that turns stress into swagger. These are the records shaping Lagos weekends from Friday night madness to Sunday cool downs.

The Friday Night Starters

The moment the week ends, Lagos lounges and car speakers blast the heat. These songs kick-start the mood and let the city know it’s time to party:

  • Burna Boy – No Sign of Weakness
  • Asake – Money
  • Olamide – 99
  • Kizz Daniel – Twe Twe Remix ft. Davido

The Midnight Club Anthems

  • Ruger – Make Way
  • Ayra Starr – Bad Vibes
  • Shallipopi – Jungle
  • Odumodublvck – 100 Million ft. Tiwa Savage

  • Victony – Ludo
  • Tems – Love Me Jeje
  • BNXN – Romeo Must Die ft. Ruger
  • Rema – Benin Boys

  • Adekunle Gold – The Life I Chose
  • Fireboy DML – Everyday
  • Oxlade – Katigori
