Listen UP: OKLAY, formerly known as OkayMusic, out with ‘Mistake’

OKLAY, formerly known as OkayMusic is back with a banger titled MSTAKE. The song is produced by award winning producer Big Boy Darling.

This is his first single under his new name. According to OKLAY, the name change was necessitated by a number of reasons, including finding a unique identity as an artist.

“OkayMusic , as my name in the music industry has played a major role in my growth as an artist . However, like everything else in life, change is constant. I decided to get back in touch with my roots, to create a marriage between my lyrical choices and what my name represents. OKLAY means  ‘You are Big ‘ in Ga Adamgbe . Search optimization has also played a major role in the decision to change my name. Making my music easily accessible for my fans means that we continue to build this seamless connection between my music and fans, which has been my goal from day one.”
