“Pogo (feat Mark B)” single artwork

Globally acclaimed Thai-American hip-hop artist, co-founder for the chart-topping #1 group Thaitanium and actor DABOYWAY has pioneered the first collaboration between a Southeast Asian artist and the Dominican music genre with his latest single “Pogo” featuring Dominican artist Mark B. Out today (August 25) across all digital platforms, “Pogo” is a unique effort between the two artists formed out of the recent popularization of the Dembow genre–a Dominican musical genre that can be traced to a rhythm that originated in Jamaican dancehall–to an international audience. “Pogo” was produced by Latin Grammy Award-winners Ricky Luna and Max Gallo alongside Latin Grammy Award-winning Dominican producer Alcover and JB1. Stream/download it now at: https://hypeddit.com/pogo-daboywayfeaturingmarkb.

DABOYWAY has also today shared the music video for “Pogo (feat. Mark B),” further combining the pair’s backgrounds as it was filmed in both Santo Domingo, DR and Bangok, TH by Dylan Maddux and Pisinee Khaosamai, respectively. Watch it streaming below or on YouTube HERE.

“I recorded ‘Pogo’ because I’ve listened to a lot of Dembow music recently, and I love what artists like Mike B have contributed to the international music culture,” shares DABOYWAY. “I hope our fans from around the world embrace this diverse collaboration and that it helps to introduce Dominican music culture to Southeast Asia.”

DABOYWAY will wrap up the U.S. leg of his “Ways World Tour” this Sunday, August 27 in New York City, NY at The Cutting Room. He’s previously performed shows with Thaitanium across the world alongside popular artists including Jay-Z, Nas, Snoop Dogg, Rihanna, Flo-Rida, and 50 Cent.

DABOYWAY—the Thai-American hip-hop pioneer, co-founder of the chart-topping #1 group Thaitanium and actor—has announced a run of headlining shows across the U.S. later this month as part of his “Ways World Tour.” The tour will take place from August 16, launching in Fort Lauderdale, FL, until August 27 ending in New York City surrounding his upcoming Dembow-oriented single “Pogo”—a collaborative release with Dominican Republic artist Mark B. Tour dates are listed below; tickets are on sale HERE. “Pogo” was produced by Latin Grammy Award-winners Ricky Luna, Max Gallo, Alcover and JB1 and is scheduled for digital release on Friday, August 25 along with a new music video filmed in both Santo Domingo, DR and Bangok, TH. Stay tuned for more details.

“Pogo” follows the success of DABOYWAY’s recent single “Cake Diet”—the first new music since his 2020 self-titled debut solo album. Produced by Luna and Gallo, “Cake Diet” was released via Def Jam Thailand last October. Its music video—generating over 3.5 million views and described by NME as “a carnival fever dream”— is an 8-minute short film featuring Miss Grand Thailand 2022, Engfa Waraha, with DABOYWAY helming the creative direction. The “Cake Diet” track also sparked a TikTok challenge which has garnered over 92 million views. DABOYWAY performed a riveting live version of “Cake Diet” on Grammy.com’s “Press Play” series earlier this year; watch it HERE. Stream the “Cake Diet” music video below or via YouTube HERE.

DABOYWAY is currently working on a new solo album that blends hip-hop and international club music. He unveiled the first taste of it with his April-released single “BAKA” (feat. Japanese EDM YouTube phenomenon Repezen Foxx, once again produced by Luna). Listen now and watch the music video at https://lnk.to/0405_BAKAly. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more new music and news on his upcoming release.
