On Friday, Ghanaian megastar Shatta Wale shared his new “Ain’t Nobody” single, which features EGOT-winning global R&B icon John Legend. Executive produced by Leslie Quaynor, “Ain’t Nobody” arrives via Fantasy Entertainemnt Group as a breezy anthem of love and loyalty.
“Gyal you are mi happiness/ Still mi love your snappiness/ You the girl weh me wanted to know me when no one else/ Making love to you and you say boy mi love your scrappiness,” Shatta sing-chats in a ’90s reggae cadence over a soulful mélange of guitars and brass, before Legend chimes in with his buttery vocals in the soaring chorus. “Who gon’ give it to you/ Like I give it to you/ Don’t get it confused/ Ain’t nobody,” the “All of Me” singer belts.
Written by both artists alongside Rob Murat, who co-produced the song with Sean Kantrowitz, “Ain’t Nobody” bridges reggae and R&B by relying on the genre’s shared muses of love and relationships. The rollicking collaboration serves as the official lead single for Shatta’s forthcoming studio album, currently slated for a fall release. Of course, the Ghanaian powerhouse is no stranger to joining forces with American superstars. In 2019, Beyoncé recruited him for “Already,” a fan favorite cut from her The Lion King: The Gift compilation soundtrack.
“Ain’t Nobody” also marks Legend’s second new collaboration of 2026. Last month (Feb. 26), he teamed up with Maryland-based artist Foggieraw for “Grow Up.” Although it’s been nearly four years since his last R&B studo album, 2022’s Legend, the acclaimed multi-hyphenate has kept busy. He spent most of 2025 on an arena-headlining tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of his landmark Get Lifted debut LP. In addition, he released three major collaborations, including link-ups with Clipse (“The Birds Don’t Sing”), Norah Jones (“Summertime Blue”) and Tasha Cobbs-Leonard (“Church”). Notably, “Church” earned Legend his first Grammy nomination for best gospel performance/song.
Last week (March 12), Legend officially joined the Cats: The Jellicle Ball Broadway producing team alongside Tony winner Mike Jackson via their Get Lifted Film Co. banner.
