Ghanaian songstress Gyakie has released an impressive dancehall-infused song, “harmattan.”
“harmattan” is a captivating blend of Afro-fusion and dancehall energy, mirroring the seasonal transition its title evokes.
It is a love song, a flirtatious kind of song where, let’s say, you are in the club or you’re at a party with your lover just dancing and having a good time.
Gyakie’s smooth vocal glides effortlessly over the production, her lyrics painting vivid imagery of love, change, and resilience.
She captures the feeling of something new and cleansing sweeping through, both in relationships and within oneself.
Shatta Wale enters, his signature dancehall swagger injects the track with vibrant contrast—his deep, commanding vocals adding texture.
Produced by SOSA, the song “harmattan” was taken from Gyakie’s debut album “After Midnight,” which features 17 tracks.
The album features guest appearances from Young Jonn, Omar Sterling, Shatta Wale, 6LACK, Headie One, and Kojey Radical.
The album “After Midnight” was preceded by Gyakie’s earlier singles “Unconditional” and “Sankofa,” released just weeks prior.
