LISTEN: Brazzi steps on the scene with a love song “ObaaHemaa”

It’s Africa’s time now on the global front, and every now and then, many fresh and stupendous talents get launched unto the scene. Brazzi is sure one of them but sorry, he sounds different from the many other ones you have already listened to.

Brazzi – the Ghanaian born Afrobeats Crooner officially announcing his presence with this new song titled “ObaaHemaa” as his major release is about to take you on a roller coaster ride.
“Obaa Hemaa” he titles it is a song that does not only get you into urban sound from Africa but also effortlessly compels with his swooning voice.


So What’s The Story Behind “Obaa Hemaa” You Need To Know?

The Afrobeats genre has constantly evolved during the past few years. This evolvement has occurred due to the endless development of African artiste around the world. “ObaaHemaa” happens to fall into the Afrobeats spectrum, however, also present a western mood with an African touch to its roots.

Song employs both English and Twi in its lyrics. It presents listeners with a conversation between a man and a woman of his choice. He describes the traits of the woman that draws him closer to her. Alongside convincing her that he is the man for her and even though times get hard, and he can’t regularly get in touch with her due to circumstances, he is still going to keep it a hundred and would try his best to give her the world that she deserves because he can’t settle to give her less.

Sarkodie Performed “No Fugazy” with his Style, Stonebwoy’s Fabric Took 5 days on Sea, Yaw Tog Going Wild, and Gyakie simply being Elegant on the Global Citizen Stage

Where are we gonna run go if we don’t appreciate the hard work, effort, and creativity our Ghanaian acts put into their work to make them ready for the world market? We would be Greedy men if we don’t spotlight Stonebwoy and his much-talked-about opening act for the just-ended Global Citizen Festival at the Black Star Square. Considering the theme and the purpose of the festival, Stonebwoy’s choice of songs for his performance as the opening act set the right tone for the subsequent performances, but what also sets the tone was his dressing. 

Stonebwoy


Stonebwoy in the last year has had a dramatic change in his style as an artist, leaning more into a more comfortable vintage loose outfit, he got Ghanaians talking when he pulled a similar look at the Ghana awards show, but that was only the beginning of a fashion journey Stonebwoy was embarking on. In music videos like therapy, Stonebwoy has spruced up in similar long but loose trousers and a simple shirt. 

Not just the vintage look, Stonebwoy is also one of the very few Ghanaian artists who harness the power of a monochromatic look to his creative advantage. Pulling up in an all-white look, that highlights how victorious his journey is as an artist, being the best at the game, his unmistaken uniqueness, and a total symbol of peace as a global citizen, Stonebwoys’ meticulously crafted entry performance was only a victory.

Stonebwoy

After 5 days of traveling from the US to Ghana to be made, the off-white luxury lace fabric outfit complimented his warm skin tone and his Size 42 matching white Karl Lagerfeld sneakers were to me the utmost sign of Class. 

Accessorizing in a silver shade of glasses, 1GAD necklace, rings, and bracelet only didn’t make him shine like the Black star he, but also lit up the Black  Star Square where the event happened. Some stars shine brighter indeed. I meant that the Gidigba hitmaker was aiming for nothing but the sky, a true 1GAD. 

Harrycotten



Henry of Harrycotten, the personal stylist of Stonebwoy for the night stated that “The concept behind the outfit is to make him stand out from the others” which I think was perfectly achieved.

The  Young Bull of Ghana music, Yaw Tog, didn’t only come and make Mama proud, he came to prove that he deserves all the applause as the leader of the Gen Z entertainment culture. Styled by Drip drip Ghana Styling, Yaw Tog pulled up on stage with a casual look, rocking Rick Owens boots togging on stage with his Darkshadow, Zip fastening high-top sneakers. His perfectly fitted Editorial Department navy green Shorts accompany a GAP plain white T-shirt and the red bandana that symbolizes his journey as a musician, from his first Sore hit to Global Citizen Festival Stage.

Yaw Tog

Champagne the Stylist of Drip drip Ghana Styling and the personal stylist of Yaw Tog who was aiming for a simple but wild look for the Young Bull commented that: 

“The red bandana signifies the level of energy and how wild he is on stage, the white shirt also signifies victory and a way to make him pop out on stage. The army green color that usually is attached to soldiers, together with the red bandana only gave him that soldierlike morale He was a Soldier that night.” 

Champagne the Stylist

Also, the Songbird of the Ghanaian music industry as well as the only lady representing the Female Industry on the night gave a powerful performance. Gyakie didn’t only prove that she had earned her space on that platform, but she seized the opportunity to express her versatility and musical ingenuity. But aside from her talent, Gyakie’s outfit was also a star on the night.

Gyakie

Emmanuella Amankwah of Ellanore who is responsible for that glow on stage revealed the plan behind the look for the Songbird. According to her:

“My vision was to create a masterpiece that will be memorable during and after her performance. Something comfortable, because you know Gyakie, she likes to dance.”

Emmanuella Amankwah

This vision materialized elegantly for the classy personality Gyakie is. The Burgundy trousers and the orange colors suited her flawless skin tone, and the Crepe Fabric with a bit of Lycra gave her the right amount of comfort she needed to turn up on stage. 48hours working on that piece was worth it!

Finally, if the world music world forgets the name Sarkodie, his story will be told in the Fashion world. His Iconic performance was not the only thing that stood tall on the night, Sarkodie’s Style even though usual had a bit of twist to it that night. Sarkodie epitomizes his song No Fugazy, spruced up in high-earned brands put together so well, he didn’t have to sing his fashion anthem “No Fugazy” his looks did that for him.

Sarkodie

Giving a Black Monochromatic Alpha Male energy on stage, Sarkodie showed up in a Black T-shirt and Cargo Pants and his favorite sneaker brand, Jordans 3. The mysterious dark look that positioned the figure on stage as the sole authority on the night was lit up with white and black dotted Supreme Scarf tied to their head and a Supreme black biker’s gloves didn’t only give him a better grip on the mic, but a better grip on the show. 

Considering the growth of his style, it’s easy to assume that, a renowned stylist will be behind his switch, but speaking to his manager, Angelo, he revealed that  “Sarkodie styled himself for the performance.” This only confirms that Sarkodie doesn’t just model in these brands for videos and photos, he now lives the lifestyle.

Sarkodie

Celebrity Stylist, Guy Guy Tinz, shared his opinion on how far the style of our beloved Ghanaian artists has come and commended them for the job done by each individual stylist of these artists. 

Guy Guy Tinz

“Stonebwoys look was phenomenal to me because it was proportional, Sarkodie’s Scarf to me elevated the look from 60 to 100, Gyakie’s outfit looked good on her and was beautiful and Yaw tog looked simple but nice.”, he added.

UVIX Celebrates Gyakie, Tiwa Savage, Sza, Tems For Great Performances At Global Citizen Festival

As a lady, to mount a stage confidently in front of a sea of crowds like the Global Citizens Festival, maintaining stamina, and breath control, not breaking a sweat delivering that mellifluous high key comes with going the extra to stay fit and being healthy. 

Their ability to change the narrative by harnessing the power and weakness that comes with being a woman is applaudable. Gyakie, Tems, Tiwa Savage, and Sza on the night, were not intimidated by their gender nor the conditions that comes with being a woman; they stood their ground and delivered!

Listen Now: bigBen & Camidoh drop ‘My Killa’

Harmony Music Group frontman, bigBen and ‘Sugarcane’ star, Camidoh link up for one of the sweetest collaborations to drop this week. Stream or download ‘My Killa’ across all major digital platforms here: https://hmg.streamlink.to/bigben-camidoh-mykilla

bigBen x Camidoh.jpg

The latest song from the fast-rising Nigerian singer isn’t just another love song; it’s “the love song for everyone”, according to the star. And upon first play, his description to Elite PR holds. There’s a certain allure to the aptly produced collaboration, one that effortlessly melts bigBen and Camidoh’s sweet vocals into the percussive-rich soundscape of Ghanaian producer, Beatz Vampire, with the two pouring out their heart’s content for a girl they desire and the feeling they create is magical. 

Detailing how he stumbled upon this potential hit, bigBen shared: “I wrote ‘My Killa’ during a tutorial session in the presence of a friend. She always wanted to experience my creative process, so I invited her to the studio that day. It was a great session and she was my muse”.

‘My Killa’ comes five months after bigBen’s stellar 6-track EP “Swings & Blu3s” and is yet another perfect example of the crooner’s versatility, which has so far captured all the sub-genres of Afrobeat; Afro-fusion, Afro-pop and Afroswing. But outside of being a solo artist worthy of praise, bigBen has worked with lots of big-name Ghanaian artists; from Stonebwoy, M.anifest, Bisa Kdei, Eden, Sista Afia to Teephlow and with Camidoh now a part of his long list of collaborators, bigBen is arguably one of the industry’s most decorated artists.

LISTEN NOW: MR EAZI NEW AMAPIANO SINGLE, “PATEK” FEAT. DJ TÁRICO + JOEY B

Mr Eazi has shared his new single titled Patek featuring DJ Tárico and Joey B. The pan-African banger is Mr Eazi’s first dive into amapiano, the genre that’s exploded out of South Africa’s dance music underground to become a global phenomenon recently.

Mr Eazi recorded an early version of the song on a whim in South Africa with DJ Tárico, whose amapiano smash Yaba Baluku took Africa by storm over the past year. 

After a brief snippet posted to TikTok which generated thousands of user-generated videos and millions of views, Mr Eazi recruited Ghanaian rapper Joey B to help him finish the track — and crystallize its banger status.

The result is one of Mr Eazi’s lightest and breeziest tunes. An air of detached cool courses through Mr Eazi and Joey B’s vocals while DJ Tárico’s icy rhythm blends amapiano’s rolling, log drum basslines with atmospheric accordions. 

“It’s really not that deep,” Mr Eazi says. “It’s a fun song that I can’t wait to perform, and it’s got Nigeria, Ghana and Mozambique all together on one track.”

Patek follows recent singles Legalize and Personal Baby among Mr Eazi’s 2022 releases. 

Fans can expect more singles from the Nigerian music superstar and African business innovator before year’s end, as he gears up to share his long-awaited official debut album in 2023.
