alone (Remix) is a single from FOLA featuring BNXN, released October 4, 2024. It takes the original alone — FOLA's breakthrough single featuring BhadBoi OML, released February 2024 — and hands the second verse to BNXN, one of the defining voices of contemporary Nigerian Afropop and R&B. The remix charted at number 1 on Nigeria Official Streaming Songs and number 4 on TurnTable Top 100 on release, becoming the moment that transformed FOLA from a promising newcomer into an artist whose next move people were genuinely anticipating. The extended viral run that followed set up his Dangbana Republik signing in October 2024 and his debut EP What a Feeling in December the same year.

Zlatan ft. FOLA – Get BetterFOLA — born Folarin Odunlami in Lagos in 2001 — first introduced himself in 2022 with debut single Ginger Me featuring Bella Shmurda, but alone (original) was the record that put him on charts for the first time. BNXN's appearance on the remix is a studied choice: not a surprise-guest add-on, but two artists whose shared sense of restraint and melodic instinct genuinely complement each other, with BNXN's verse adding the kind of gravity the original's energy was always building toward.
Rating: 8.5/10.
