After releasing a crisp, eye-popping visual for his classic first single of the year, Switzerland-based Ghanaian afrobeats singer LeFlyyy shot up on Twitter trends for all the good reasons.

Titled “Your Waist”, a slow-tempo afrobeats party-theme jam which features Deon Boakye’s soul-soothing vocal, is a blend of English and French lyrics dedicated to all melanins across the globe.

The song produced by Peewezel is accompanied by crisp, gripping and eye-popping visual directed by JmKad.

According to LeFlyyy, the song was inspired by an encounter he and Deon Boakye had with a beautiful woman while strolling a fringe area in Accra.

“We named the song ‘Your Waist’ because, one time, me and Deon were going to a fringe place and we saw this lady covered up from head to toe, and all you could see was her hair and waist moving,” he disclosed.

On why he chose to feature Deon Boakye instead of other singers, he says: “It was easy because we were together when the lady walked by.”

According to the Fly Family Entertainment signee, the song is a “dope mixture of the French and English language; a very beautiful song that will put listeners in a dancing mood.”

The song and its visual has been highly praised by Twitter users, labelling it as one of the best songs and visuals released so far in 2021.

It topped the Ghana Trend vertical on Twitter and stayed on top for hours before dropping eventually.

Abladzo Kwame changes name to “Kwame Ye”, drops promo photos to spark new journey

Published

on

Kwame Ye 4

Abladzo Kwame was a loud name for fans of Rap until the Rapper decided to go into hiatus and rebrand. He returns with a new name, Kwame Ye, and also shares new promotional photos to kick off his new found journey.

 

Follow him on his Social Media pages below:

Facebook – Kwame Ye (@KwameYeMusic)

Instagram, X – @KwameYeMusic

 

Stemming from a culture of hardcore hiphop and street rap, Kwame Ye, as he loves to be called in the showbiz circles is unapologetic about his style and presentation of rap culture.

 

Born as Klu Frank, he hails from the Volta Region of Ghana; but primarily grew up in Adenta, a suburb of Greater-Accra where he got inspired to start music as a hobby from childhood. With an unflinchingly real-life perspective, he would be found delivering rap with a gruff rasp influenced by  UK ‘Grime’ and ‘rusty’ beat compositions to fit his style of lyrics.

 

Kwame Ye is a co- founder of a music clique called Kings Capital Music Group (KCMG).

 

“I fell in love with art as the days crept, adding more years to my infant self; and while I grew up, my style and passion got influenced more by my peers and lovers of my music; this pushed me more to work more music, write more music, record more music and perform them as well across different stage. Music became a powerful tool for me to express myself effortlessly”, Kwame Ye intimated. He was formerly known as Abladzo Kwame, and would later pick Kwame ye as his newly found space after a new dawn of transformation and revitalisation.

 

“HipLife and Highlife were my foundation and first influences; both served as therapeutic sounds for me and led me into producing and writing my own music, and exploring other styles (genres)”, he added.

 

“I would say my style of music is a Fusion of Rap and Afro-Soul; and to keep my origins I use a lot of my native dialect, Ewe, for almost every song I churn out” –Kwame Ye.

 

Kwame Ye recorded his first song with Skillions (a Ghana-based music clique cum label) at their recording studio titled “Bossu”, featured on by Boynash, a London-based Ghanaian Rapper.

Kwame ye has scored some feats working with notable Ghanaian artistes like Edem, Gemini Orleans, Nektunez, just to name a few. He also doubles a Fashion Designer who pieces together all kinds of fabrics, creatively, as another form of gifted art.

His global influences? Kanye West, Akon, Lil Wayne, Da Hammer, Nektunez fall on his list of favourites he gets inspired by with their works.
