Ghanaian music veteran Samini joins forces with Soweto Gospel Choir for their soul-stirring joint track “Chaana.”
‘Chaana’, which means ‘shine’, is a soul-stirring Afro Pop anthem that seeks to uplift and inspire Africans, reinforcing the continent’s limitless potential, resilience, and unity.
The song masterfully blends Samini’s distinct style with authentic African influences, incorporating the WALA dialect from Wa, the Upper West Region of Ghana—where Samini hails from—alongside Zulu elements delivered by the Soweto Gospel Choir.
This fusion creates a Pan-African musical experience, celebrating diversity while emphasizing a common cultural heritage.
Soweto Gospel Choir participation transforms “Chaana” into a communal experience, one that transcends individual expression and becomes a collective celebration of humanity.
The track “Chaana“, produced by Francis Kweku Osei, unites Samini with the exceptional artistry of South Africa’s Soweto Gospel Choir in a captivating musical synergy.
Samini’s latest song, “Chaana” feels like a new chapter, the lead single from his forthcoming album “Origin8a,” set to drop later in 2025.
Complementing the release of the song, an official music video brought the track to life, directed by Yaw Skyface.
