Okyeame Kwame ‘Tries One More Time’ with J. Martins

Ghana’s rap doctor Okyeame Kwame has released a new song titled ‘Try (One More Time)’ with Nigerian music icon J. Martins.

The much anticipated collaboration between these two West African music gurus was produced by the famous beat maker EL of BBnZ Live.

The ‘Try’ hit song basically talks about cultivating the ‘never give up’ habit.

“You keep praying but it seems Jehovah doesn’t hear you. Your mother’s brother has money but he doesn’t think about you. You have tried and tried and tired but it seems it’s not working. Try one more time. Try another time,” Okyeame Kwame stated in his song.

The song forms part of Okyeame Kwame’s upcoming ‘African Connection’ album which is expected to feature top notch musicians across Africa.

“If you see it you can be it, you believe it you can live it, if you crave it you can make it. You complain it’s complicated but don’t give up, don’t be bitter, keep your chin up and you will be better. We are fighting for a brighter day,” a line from Kwame’s song stated.

He has already recorded songs with artistes from Uganda, South Africa and looking at doing more collaboration with other African musicians.

The award-winning Ghanaian rapper has produced several hit songs like ‘Faithful’, ‘Sika’, ‘Woara’ and ‘Woso’ among others.

J Martins on the other hand is not new in Ghana; he’s behind songs such ‘Iva’, ‘Cool Temper’, ‘Good or Bad (Owey)’ and also featured prominently on P-Square’s ‘Eno Easy’ and Selebobo’s ‘Yoyo’ remix.
