“Manyewu” is an upbeat Afroccentric single produced by the decorated Ghanaian producer Appietus who uses his musical genius to cook a beautiful Afropop sound with underlying Highlife instrumentals.
Kwadwo uses this song to paint a picture where he provides reassurance of love to his muse. Sampling the popular song, ‘Ahomka Womu’ by legendary Ghanaian group VIP, he makes his lady understand that he is appreciative of the love she gives him and is ready to die on the altar for her.
Much like the original sample, Kwadwo uses his lady’s splendid appearance as a canvas for him to paint a beautiful piece of art using his soul-melting lyrics.
The song comes off as the ultimate party tune but there’s more to it. Through the melodic production, amazing vocals, and an appealing rhythm, Kwadwo and Appietus manage to accurately display the beautiful culture of mother Africa in the song. Love, affection, euphoria, and a plethora of good vibes are felt throughout the song and that’s just how they wanted it. There’s no reason why this song would not connect with the bustling lovebirds and music lovers of the culture. It is anticipated to inspire different dance moves across the continent.
In the song, Kwadwo alternates between pidgin, English, and Twi & is not afraid to add catchy melodic rhythms to back up his sound. Together, he and Appietus give off an impressive performance complementing each other smoothly throughout the song.
