Ghanaian Rapper Kwame Yesu debuts new single 'ADWUMA'

Ghanaian rapper Kwame Yesu has released his new and debut single for the year ADWUMA. This single follows Kwame Yesu’s 2022 releases, SuMoMi and ISSUES.

Riding on a drill beat produced by Ghanaian-German based producer Robin Rozay, Kwame Yesu explores the themes of hard work, courage and resilience, the qualities attributed to a young person hustling in the streets of Accra while being stereotyped by the Police.

Speaking about the ideation behind the record, Kwame Yesu recounts how a random police stop inspired ADWUMA.

According to him; “We got stopped and harassed by the police, stereotyped as hoodlums due to our looks and dread hairstyle. As a result of this incident, my team and myself kept talking about what had just happened. Before arriving at our destination, I had composed the melody for the hook and few rap lines. I later met up with my new found collaborator Robin Rozay a Ghanaian- German based producer for recording session and completed the record.”
