Afro-Dancehall superstar Stonebwoy is back with another masterpiece, “Jejereje,” out today on all streaming platforms, as a precursor to his much-anticipated sixth studio album dropping next month! After dominating the airwaves with earlier released singles off his upcoming project including ‘Ekebele’ ft. Odumodublvk, ‘Your Body,’ and ‘Pray for Me’ ft. Wyclef Jean, Stonebwoy’s ‘Jejereje’ takes listeners on a nostalgic ride with traditional storytelling of a Ghanaian folklore.
The single is an ode to Ghana’s rich culture and history as it beautifully blends street music and style with vibrant melodies and rhythmic beats, all while visually and sonically capturing the depth and wisdom of Ghanaian narratives. ‘Jejereje,’ a popular saying translates to “one’s cup of tea” suggesting a person’s actions will determine their fate. In the visuals, ‘Jejereje’ tells the lively tale of Kofi, a Friday-born boy whose rebellious spirit leads him into endless trouble.
The song masterfully blends the old with the new by marrying traditional African storytelling with contemporary Afrobeat production. ‘Jejereje’ was produced by Grammy Award-winning mastermind Ginton. “Very few have propelled Ghana’s dancehall movement to greater heights than Stonebwoy,” CNN stated earlier this year, after naming him one of their African Voices Changemakers.
‘Jejereje’ highlights that influence as Stonebwoy honors the vibrant Ghanaian tradition of highlife mu.
