Chris Lorenzo x COBRAH – Mami [Late Checkout]
Chris Lorenzo launches his new label Late Checkout with one of the most impactful records of his career. A collaboration with the celebrated Swedish electro artist COBRAH, Mami is a ferocious house cut with an earworm vocal that’s already captured the imagination of dancefloors around the globe.
Chris Lorenzo’s rise to the upper echelons of the house and bass scene is one of electronic music’s more notable success stories. Widely acknowledged for pioneering a sound that has become increasingly prominent throughout the UK, US and many other parts of the world, Lorenzo’s flawless production and high-octane DJ sets have earned him a fanatical and ever-growing global following.
Recent releases include California Dreamin – Beatport No.1 and currently sitting on 50 million streams and counting – his remix of J balvin & Skrillex – In Da Getto, which was the most played remix of 2021 according to 1001 Tracklists and his collaboration with Chris Lake, Chromatic, under their Anti Up alias, another Beatport No.1 from earlier this year.
2022 has also seen Lorenzo playing the main stage at EDC Vegas where he went b2b with AC Slater as well as making his debut at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Rock in Rio. It’s been during this sets that Lorenzo has been road-testing new single Mami, on which he teamed up with one of electronic music’s most exciting and innovative artists.
“I had been listening to COBRAH’s stuff for a while and knew that stylistically, her vocals over my beats could work really well. We were in the studio for 2 days recording different ideas but I especially remember the moment COBRAH came up with the Mami lyric. I knew right then and there what we created was going to be huge, even before the beat was finished. On top of being super talented, COBRAH is an absolute gem to work with and be around. I look forward to making some more fire with her.” Chris Lorenzo

“There’s so much talk about the Daddies in the world, but let’s be honest. Daddies never do shit. If you wanna be taken care of real good, get a Mami” COBRAH
