In the burgeoning landscape of Ghana and African music, a new masterpiece is about to emerge upon the horizon. Accented with the unmistakable mélange of rhythmic dexterity and lyrical competence, Freedom Cry Records signed act Wakayna is set to release his self-produced single titled ‘Skolom’, which promises to be an extraordinary addition to the musical repertoire of the continent.

Due to grace the airwaves on the 7th December 2023, the song promises to capture an intimate, a tantalizing melody, and an exquisite fusion of traditional and modern African music, thoroughly woven together by the hands of a master craftsman.

‘Skolom’, originating from the vibrant streets of Ghana, translates into ‘fall into something’, a colloquial aphorism that serves as the frame for Wakayna’s yet to be released single. Echoing the resonant textures of love, ‘Skolom’ embodies the story of a man who falls irrevocably in love with an African lady, whose beauty and charisma weave an irresistible charm.

Undoubtedly, an extraordinary song such as ‘Skolom’ requires an extraordinary team. Providing the much-needed support and contribution to Wakayna’s magnum opus were Joshua Moszi, whose deft fingers played the guitar, infusing the song with a rhythmic sincerity. Nee Mantse, who strummed the bass with an intuitive understanding of the beats’ heart, added depth and dimension to the track. Flipdabeatz, with his intuitive grasp on the log drum, added the earthy touch that aligned the single with its African roots.

The final touch, akin to dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s, was undertaken by PossiGee’s adept engineering expertise. Balancing the diverse but harmonious elements of ‘Skolom’, he shaped the various sounds into a seamless masterpiece. He carefully calibrated Wakayna’s vocals, the instrumental, and the musical contributions, achieving equilibrium. His painstaking job gave the song its final form, ensuring that the listeners are serenaded by a perfectly orchestrated symphony.

Anticipate for a classic jam that mirrors the journey of a man falling in love. The elegance of emotion-styled sounds combined with Wakayna’s vocal attributes evokes a sense of understanding and shared experience that transcends the barriers of culture and nationality.
