NO11 Links Gabzy on ‘Coachella’ — Abuja–London Nepo-Baby Afro-Fusion Flex Out Now

Every friend group has that one person whose father’s name opens doors faster than a bank manager’s card. NO11, the Abuja-raised voice behind the viral “HOW FAR,” has written a whole song for that person, and he has brought British-Nigerian crooner Gabzy along to help finish the money. Their new single “Coachella” landed on streaming platforms on 9 October 2026, with the official video arriving on NO11’s YouTube channel the night before. The hook is simple and wicked: if you be a nepo baby, let me spend all your money. Chale, sharing is caring.

📌 Quick Facts

  • Song: Coachella
  • Artists: NO11 & Gabzy
  • Released: 9 October 2026
  • Type: Single
  • Label: NO11 Sound / EMPIRE
  • Producer: Puffybeatz
  • Video Director: The Yen House
  • Genre: Afro-fusion / Afropop
  • Length: 3:07

The Vibe: Champagne Problems, Small-Small Pidgin

Producer Puffybeatz keeps the beat breezy, with smooth synths and bouncy percussion that leave plenty of room for jokes. NO11 does the talking first, rolling through lines about designer clothes that are not “Made in China,” a drip so heavy it does not need the Met Gala, and an April diary that already says Coachella. He even flexes football touch like Ronaldinho, because why not. Then Gabzy slides in with the soft, buttery tone that made “As Friends” a fan favourite, and flips the whole joke: he is no nepo baby himself, but he plans to raise plenty of them. That one na long-term investment.

The cover art sets the tone before a single beat lands: a red locker room, a black tracksuit, a low cap and an iced-out “11” pendant dangling like a trophy. The official video, directed by The Yen House with creative direction from TWIZEI, arrived on YouTube alongside the release. It is cheeky, glossy and very aware of the internet’s favourite insult for rich kids.

Who Is NO11?

Born Nnamdi Odom in Houston, Texas, NO11 grew up mostly in Abuja alongside a twin brother and six older sisters, so he learned early how to fight for attention. He started releasing music in 2022, but the real breakthrough came on the last day of 2025 with “HOW FAR,” his Afropop-meets-amapiano link-up with Ayjay Bobo and Monochrome that the timeline cheekily nicknamed “nepo-piano.” The song caught fire on TikTok, earned a remix, and he has since landed on Davido’s 2026 album Oriadé with “Gimme Dat Ting.” Gabzy, for his part, has been the go-to feature for smooth hooks, from King Promise’s “Perfect Combi” to “So Much Sense” with Fireboy DML and “robbery” with FOLA.

Why It Matters Now

Many breakout acts never find a second act after one viral hit. With “Coachella,” NO11 is leaning into the exact humour that made people notice him, while partnering with EMPIRE and a respected vocalist to widen the room. It also builds a neat bridge between Abuja, Lagos, London and yes, Accra, where Gabzy already has history thanks to that King Promise link-up. For DJs, it is an easy crowd-pleaser; for the group chat, it is the perfect song to send that friend who always says “my daddy will handle it.”
