Khaid told fans on March 1 that “Yasin” would arrive on March 13. Two days later he posted a clip of it, captioned “Rich & Wacko” YASIN mp3, and then the date came and went.
The song is out today, November 13, eight months on, and King Dr. Saheed Osupa is singing on it.
All year, Khaid has talked about his debut album, Rich & Wacko, as two sides of one artist. The Rich songs, he said in June, “represent the sound people already know me for, melodic, sweet records like Jolie, With You, and Jara.” The Wacko songs “are the side they’re not used to.” In a separate June interview, he put the second side in one line: “The foundational Wacko sound is like a mix of Fuji and Hip-Hop.”
Osupa gives that line a Fuji voice with decades behind it, and one the younger generation already treats as a source. Burna Boy named him among his greatest singers in a September 2025 video, and rapper Kayode built his March single “Aimoye” on Osupa’s 2020 song “Reliable Pt. 5.” On “Yasin,” Osupa also holds a composer and lyricist credit, so his lines come from his own pen.
BMH produced the record with SiGNAL, who also mixed and mastered it, and the beat puts that June line into sound: a looping talking drum with a Fuji bounce, riding deep 808s and drum-machine claps. Khaid opens in the melodic street-pop voice his fans already know. Osupa stays in the background at first, answering him in call-and-response ad-libs, then steps up front once the hook arrives. The hook is the title, “Yasin,” chanted fast and over and over, and Osupa throws the same rapid chant back in his deeper, raspier voice. That exchange is already in the March clip, so Osupa was on the song eight months before it came out.
Khaid sold it as the Wacko side from the first teaser. In the clip he posted on November 12, he dances shirtless around a living room while a woman whom reports identify as veteran Yoruba actress Iya Gbonkan sits on the couch in a red dress and headtie, smoking and watching him, until three women dressed as reverend sisters rush in, grab him, and the music cuts out. By this morning that teaser had passed 1.8 million views on X. A few hours after the release, he summed up the reaction in four words: “That’s that wacko Experience.”
Rich & Wacko still has no release date. When Khaid first shared “Yasin” in March, he put the album’s name in the caption.
