Listen to DABOYWAY’s lively comeback single ‘Cake Diet’

Veteran Thai hip-hop artist DABOYWAY has released ‘Cake Diet’, his first solo release since his 2020 self-titled album.

DABOYWAY dropped the single alongside a carnival fever dream of a music video on October 5 featuring the rapper and his Mardi Gras-themed entourage making a trip to a carnival, where cake fights ensue.

“I do what I does / Don’t need a socket cause I am the plug / Get to the money and I’m turning it up / It’s getting real hot we walking it out / Candles on cake and I’m blowing it out / Foreigns on foreigns and showing it out,” Daboyway raps to a thumping electro beat straight out of a rave.

DABOYWAY most recently featured on the May 2021 track ‘Watch Yourself (Southeast Asia version)’ by collective Locals Only Sound, which also featured Singaporean rappers ALYPH, Fariz Jabba and Yung Raja, as well as Indonesia’s Rayi Putra.

He previously appeared on the Def Jam Thailand collaboration track ‘Thai School’ with up-and-coming rapper Artilla and duo Ziggarice in September 2020 following the release of his self-titled debut album earlier that year. The album notably included the track ‘WAY UP’ alongside Malaysian rap mogul Joe Flizzow and his compatriot Zamaera.
