A remix featuring American singer Becky G was released in July 2023 to further the song's global reach. Kizz Daniel, EMPIRE - Cough (Official Video)
"Cough" debuted at No. 1 on Nigeria’s TurnTable Top 100, breaking records at the time with 10.5 million weekly streams. It was only the second song in Nigerian history to debut at No. 1 across all available platforms.
In an official statement, Kizz Daniel explained he wanted to capture the "energetic and celebratory" feeling of impressing someone new . Critics note the song's positive energy contrasts with earlier heartbreak-themed tracks like "Pour Me Water".
Kizz Daniel chose the Twi word "ɔdɔ" (meaning love) as a tribute to his Ghanaian fans , who supported his previous hit "Buga" more than any other region.
While the Official Lyric Video dropped first, a vibrant music video directed by Director K followed in December 2022, featuring unique choreography and high-style frames. Multimedia Resources
