NEW: Another 'Dumsor' single hits town again

‘Oh no, not again!... Dumsor’ is certainly a popular phrase in Ghana!

UK-born-Ghanaian-bred music talent, wOne delivers the jargon in a witty and enthralling manner along a beat-pass-street rhythm.

The tune titled DUMSOR which means ‘on/off’ in Twi, a local Ghanaian language was premiered on the Starr Drive with Bola Ray.

According to wOne, this is the first song taken from his forthcoming self-styled mix tape ‘They call me wOne’ and he hopes it becomes a social anthem

“This is the first time the song is being played and it will travel across the country in no time I believe”.

Listen to the fascinating tune Dumsor.
