Desperados has collaborated with award-winning Afrobeats artiste, producer and songwriter Young Jonn to release "Let It Go", a track that blends Latin music with Afrobeats. The song, produced by Yung Willis, draws inspiration from "Guao Guao", a reggaeton record created by Desperados in partnership with Venezuelan artiste Micro TDH and Colombian producer Ovy On The Drums. Built around a sample of the original song, "Let It Go" reinterprets its Latin-inspired sound through Young Jonn's distinctive style, creating an Afrobeats record shaped by Nigeria's vibrant music and nightlife culture. The collaboration reflects Desperados' strategy of using music and cultural experiences to connect with younger audiences, drawing on the brand's Latin roots and the influence of Nigerian music.
