Masterkraft x Finally feat Sarkodie & Flavour

Masterkraft was the producer behind Flavour’s Thankful album and has teamed up with Flavour and Sarkodie for his latest track Finally. The video is another slick afro pop visual from Clarence Peters.

Wizkid x Ojuelegba (Sarkodie Refix)


The funny thing about this is the beat starts offbrand. Almost sped up to Tonga speed for Sarkodie to really work his magic on. And does he, the two of them are performing at SXSW so hopefully some more magic will be conjured up then.

Joey B x Tonga (Feat. Sarkodie)


So Tonga is getting a proper video almost a year after it’s release. We are not complaining just observing. Cameos from Fuse, Donaeo and Abrantee for this Uk based video as well. A December video release could signal a January/February radio run, we shall see.

Joey B x Tonga


The joy of youtube is watching how dances spread faster than ever. Twerking wouldn’t have conquered the world as quickly as it did without it. In the case of Tonga , the new dance/song from Ghana’s Joey B, its a mixture of Brazilian/Latin American grinding with a pinch of azonto. Sarkodie shows up halfway through to deliver another ballistic verse (when he’s on one he really is good). Will this conquer the world?

Busy Signal x Same Way

It seems like Busy Signal has caught the Afrobeats bug! Busy is no stranger to testing out his flow on different genres (we’ve heard him do soca, hip hop, pop, house) but he seems a little late jumping on the instrumnetal to Sarkodie’s U Go Kill Me after nearly two years of us skanking to it at our parties. Better late than never though and Same Way is a big tune. We look forward to hearing Busy on some more Afrobeats riddims in the near future.
