Wayo & Darkovibes Blend Traditional and Contemporary Sounds on New Single “Say Yes”

Wayo

Kwadjo Wayo, popularly known as Wayo, started his music career in Atlanta, Georgia where he was raised. In between his travels to Ghana, his home country, he developed a taste for both highlife, hip hop, and trap.

His wide range of music from R&B, hip hop, and highlife makes him a refreshing new entry into the Ghanaian music scene.

Wayo is hitting 2019 with a fresh new sound. After hitting Accra radio charts with relative hits Muscatella featuring Joey B and Champion Banana, Wayo returns with a modern spin on highlife on new single ‘Say Yes’.

Laced with guitar strings and drums, ‘Say yes’ features new sensation on the block Darkovibes. The duo created a melodious song; with Wayo rapping over the distinct strings, while Darkovibes sings passionately in his local parlance, Ga.

Produced by Kuvie, ‘Say Yes’ is a sonic representation of indigenous Ghanaian music from an urban lens. It blends traditional sounds with contemporary lyrics and melodies in a very interesting one. It’s a brilliant salute to Ghanaian palm wine music and highlife music mavericks such as “Agya Koo Nimo” and “CK Mann”. The song is a head-nodding earworm that will have you grooving all day.
