South African amapiano star Focalistic and Nigerian afro-beats giant Davido took some time out of their busy schedules to preview some exclusive unreleased music in Accra, Ghana, over the weekend.
The exclusive songs seem to be part of the pair's eagerly anticipated upcoming project, which is thought to be titled “Champion Sound” EP.
Focalistic took to his Instagram stories to share some short snippets of him and the “Fall” hitmaker dancing and vibing to some of their unreleased music.

In November, Focalistic and Davido released “Champion Sound”, the first single from the EP, along with a music video shot in Nigeria and the UK.
Just a month in, and the video is already sitting on six million views.
The pair made the song during David's visit to Johannesburg, South Africa, to perform at Focalistic's birthday bash and had been teasing it for several months before its eventual release.
“Champion Sound” marked the second time the two artists released music together following the release of the Davido-assisted remix to Focalistic's platinum-selling single, “Ke Star”, earlier in the year.
Over the weekend, Focalistic also performed several shows across Accra, including the 2RS Fest and The Amapiano Festival.
Davido, on the other hand, quickly jetted off to Abuja, Nigeria, after the EP's preview in Accra to play at a packed arena there with Playnetwork Africa and El'Carnival.
Focalistic has been enjoying the most successful year of his career following the continued rise in popularity of amapiano across the globe.
He's played in shows all across the continent and also Europe throughout the year, all while continuing to release new music at a frantic pace.
Davido, on the other hand, has been on a mission to break through in the US and has spent much time travelling and performing across North America.
His single Shopping Spree, featuring American heavyweights Young Thug and Chris Brown, has seen him gain significant traction state side this year.
