The song "Ginger" by L.A.X feat. Wizkid is a love song about a woman who possesses a unique and enchanting way of dancing that makes the singer feel rejuvenated and excited, hence the use of the word "ginger." The song is littered with references to lavish lifestyles in Europe and America as the singer intends to give or take his love interest on extravagant trips. The chorus repeats the same lines, culminating to an outro with the artists, saying the names of other women who captivate them like Belinda, whom the song is about.
The lyrics playfully weave in and out of languages and slangs, giving it aural appeal beyond the catchy chorus. The song is also notable because it is the first collaboration between Wizkid, one of Africa's most popular artists, and L.A.X, a lesser-known artist attempting to break into the mainstream. The song showcases their musical synergy and complementing vocal styles, and it became a hit in Nigeria and other African countries. "Ginger" is a brilliant mix of different styles of Afro-pop that fuse together seamlessly, which can be attributed to the unique production quality by Le.gen.da.ry Beats and Sarz.
