‘Basia’ is a fusion of danceable beats, distinct lyrics and instrumentation, all combining to make the song an irresistible dance tune.
The video, which is said to be the Nigerian version of Nicki Minaj’s ‘Anaconda’ video, has been described as the most daring video shot by Peters. It features heavy flash of flesh and dance moves that make ‘Anaconda’ come second in rating.
The singer, who is a 400 level student of Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED),and is signed on to KOGA Records, has released two other singles, ‘Colored,’ and ‘Ewomo’ since he came into limelight after winning the competition.  
Zayo said: “The video is lovely even if I say so myself. When we got the idea for the video, we played around with it and decided that it is nice, we paired a great idea with a great music director and the ‘Basia’ video is the result.”
Zayo believes that he has what it takes to compete favourably in the industry. “The industry is all about delivering the kind of songs that can stand the test of time. There are songs that when you hear them a few years down the line, you can still relate and connect with them. Those are the kind of songs I want to create. I look forward to working with a lot of talented people in the industry and with time we would be releasing other songs,” he said.
Zayo, who says he looks up to Fela, Oritsefemi, Shina Peters and Tuface Idibia, has worked with the likes of Masterkraft, DJklem Puffy Tee, Licious Crackit, Htee and Coded.
