Music collaborations are very important especially when there is a good gel between two artists. Artists come together to create music to entertain two different fan bases and also tap into each other’s numbers. 

In Ghana, every time music duo, R2bees collaborates with Africa’s most decorated rapper Sarkodie the songs are always fire. 

So it not surprising that in 2020 the Tema base musicians are back on a song called Yawa. 

The new R2bees song featuring Sarkodie is uptempo which is quite different from their previous collaborations with Sarkodie. The duo, Mugeez, and Pae Dae AKA Omar Sterling have always delivered on any music genre that has tried so far including Hi-life music. 

Yawa by r2bees is one for Christmas. The new song is in line with Ghana’s Azonto and it got us thinking may Azonto is really coming back.

In the past, Sarkodie had revealed that it was time to bring Azonto back and to start the campaign he dropped a song to get his fans ready for the new Azonto season.

Listening to the Yawa song by R2bees, it is not surprising that they chose Sarkodie for this song. The “Gimme way” hit make always knows how to carefully weave his lyrics on beats like this to get people dancing and excited. 

The new R2bees collaborations with Sarkodie come after songs such as the Bayla trap and Ajei, even though Sarkodie and Omar Sterling have jumped on a song called Oluwa is Involved before. 

The Jay directed music video takes viewers back to a time we have to make sure our TV antennas are properly fixed just to watch a black star football match. 

Yawa video is not just hilarious but it has elements of our Ghanaian culture in there with the setting of a typical ghetto neighborhood. 

Enjoy the new R2bees jam featuring Sarkodie called Yawa.
