Background
"Caro" serves as the first single recorded by the Starboy Entertainment label. In an interview with Showtime Celebrity, L.A.X said that he met Wizkid through celebrity stylist Toyin Lawani, who introduced him after playing some of his songs for Wizkid. He recalled visiting Wizkid's house around midnight for their first meeting, after which he signed a two-album recording deal with Starboy. While studying in London, L.A.X returned briefly to Nigeria to record new material, and during that period, Wizkid and L.A.X recorded "Caro".[3]
