Panic is a solo single from Ayo Maff, following his Find Money collaboration with Zerrydl released November 28, 2024 under Oceanstreet Creative and EMPIRE. Find Money itself came after Ayo Maff's Maffian EP, a 7-track project that had already established him as one of the more interesting voices coming up in Nigerian street-pop. Ayo Maff has built his sound around raw, emotionally direct storytelling that draws from his own experiences navigating the hustle of Lagos life — the kind of material that resonates because it does not pretend to be anything other than what it is.

Khaid ft. Ayo Maff – RoverPanic continues that approach. As a title it commits to an emotional register that a lot of artists avoid — anxiety, pressure, the feeling of things closing in. Ayo Maff's catalogue includes tracks like Tension, Are You There?, and Realness with Chike — there is a consistent thread of vulnerability running through his work that distinguishes him from artists chasing pure party energy. He has gone on to collaborate with Khaid on Rover, appear alongside Fireboy DML on Dealer, and build a catalogue that takes emotional honesty seriously as a creative tool rather than a marketing angle.
Rating: 7.5/10.
