People can't stop grooving to Abrar ul Haq's Coke Studio rendition of Billo

People can't stop grooving to Abrar ul Haq's Coke Studio rendition of Billo

No lie, Haq's still got it and this time, he's rapping as well!

This is one we ALL will sing along to.

For the second episode of Coke Studio 12, Rohail Hyatt brought Abrar ul Haq center stage for a contemporary rendition of his iconic hit song, 'Billo'.

No lie, Haq's still got it and this time, he's rapping as well.

According to CS, "Billo takes us down memory lane as Abrar Ul Haq takes the stage in a whirlwind of rap and bhangra, reimagining the song's quirk filled craze in full Punjabi zest."

From the video, you can tell everyone on set was having a ball shooting the track and looks like they're not the only ones who enjoyed walking down memory lane.

We thought we were biased since the song was our jam back in the day but Pakistani Twitter seems to agree. Is it a 90s kid thing?

Definitely caught everyone by surprise since you know Coke Studio has a history of messing with classics (Ko Ko Korina anyone?)

We didn't know the lyrics were such a mystery but glad that's been resolved!

We are not okay with this comparison

This is a very valid question

I really liked the backup vocalist who did that "huay huay" in the song
