Highlife sensation Akwaboah is creating waves in the music industry once again with the release of his latest single, ‘Try Me’, signaling the upcoming launch of his much-anticipated Lighthouse Album later this year. The song is a vibrant blend of contemporary Afro sounds and dance music, promising to be a favorite on DJ playlists.
Akwaboah, known for his melodious voice and creative compositions, has a knack for capturing the essence of his Ghanaian roots while infusing them with modern musical elements. ‘Try Me’ is no exception, exemplifying his ability to craft music that resonates with a wide range of audiences. The single showcases a fusion of traditional rhythms with modern beats, making it an infectious track that’s likely to get people on their feet.
The accompanying music video, shot in various locations across London, UK, was unveiled on August 13th, 2023, adding a visually captivating dimension to the song. The video not only complements the energy of the music but also provides a stunning backdrop that further enhances the song’s appeal.
While the title ‘Try Me’ might trigger thoughts of controversy due to its recent use as the name of a celebrity diss track, Akwaboah is quick to clarify that his song has been in the making for two years and is unrelated to any other contentious release with a similar title. He emphasizes that ‘Try Me’ is an expression of his musical creativity and growth, unrelated to any external conflicts or controversies.
Akwaboah has tantalizingly hinted at the forthcoming release of the Lighthouse Album, marking the culmination of a project that he embarked upon two years ago. Keeping fans and music enthusiasts in suspense, he has refrained from revealing the roster of artists who will be featured on the album. However, glimpses from his social media platforms suggest that former label mates from Sarkcess Music might make appearances, adding to the anticipation surrounding the project.
“Through ‘Try Me,’ I am once again reminding Ghanaians and the world that Akwaboah is a holistic musician – a singer-songwriter, producer, and performer. These are attributes that will be showcased on the Lighthouse Album,” Akwaboah shared enthusiastically. This statement reinforces his commitment to delivering a multifaceted musical experience that highlights his diverse talents and contributions to the industry.
