Rocky Dawuni, the 3x GRAMMY-nominated Ghanaian singer/songwriter known as ‘The King of Afro Roots’ has released his new single ‘Rise’. The first taste of his highly-anticipated and forthcoming new album.
‘Rise’ is a timely anthem for overcoming adversity and celebrating life’s victories. Underpinned by powerful, uplifting lyrics, ‘Rise’ also doubles as a call to action emboldening communities across the black diaspora to imagine the endless possibilities available if they remain aligned in the mutual vision to achieve true liberation and freedom.
Listen Here: https://ingrv.es/rise-cuh-1
A commanding declaration of resilience and empowerment in an increasingly polarized world, throughout the track, Rocky fervently sings with conviction “Imagine what we could do if we organize? Imagine what we could do if we unify?”
Produced by FB Da Mastermind (Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande) and Nabeyin Panford (Travis Scott, Kanye West, SZA, Drake), ‘Rise’ deftly and tastefully blends the vibrancy home to Afrobeat and highlife music with contemporary Hip-Hop undertones. All of which is further brought to life by Rocky’s impassioned vocal performance evoking an air of optimism and assuredness.
Speaking on the track’s meaning and purpose, Rocky said: “Rise represents to me a rhythmic call to arms to elevate the energy of hope. It is a song that embraces a diversity of sounds and cultures to forge a soundtrack for these turbulent times. My aim is to strike a deep chord that will instill a sense of connectedness in humanity.”
The single’s accompanying video was directed by Emmanuel and Samuel Appiah Gyan, who together are better known as acclaimed photography duo Twinsdntbeg. Known for their innovative and dynamic approach to visual storytelling, Twinsdntbeg bring their unique vision to the foray. Creating a compelling visual experience that complements the song’s powerful message. Offering a rich tapestry of imagery that highlights the cultural heritage of Ghana, while optimizing the contemporary coolness of the new West African cultural renaissance.
The video was shot and filmed at the former Tuff Gong Africa in Ghana, founded by the iconic and beloved Rita Marley. Previously destroyed in a fire, the location is of special significance to Rocky as he is currently in the process of rebuilding and transforming the space into a global cultural incubator.
‘Rise’ is Rocky Dawuni’s first dose of new music since the release of his 2023 single ‘Shade Tree’ and 2022’s ‘Neva Bow Down’ featuring Jamaica’s Blvk H3ro which earned Rocky his third GRAMMY nomination for ‘Best Global Music Performance.’ Rocky’s influence continues to be more apparent with his lyrics from ‘Walls Tumblin Down’ being quoted recently by the Prime Minister of Barbados, Mia Motley during her address to world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) and his prominent role alongside Stevie Wonder with a joint concert and press conference during his historic gaining of Ghanaian citizenship in May 2024.
‘Rise’ is the first preview of Rocky Dawuni’s forthcoming new album which will mark his first since his 2020 album ‘Voice of Bunbon, Vol. 1’. The new collection of songs is set to be distributed by AQUARIAN Records through Tuff Gong International, the legendary label known for fostering the international reach of Reggae music. Championing groundbreaking artists such as Bob Marley & The Wailers, The I Threes, Judy Mowatt and Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers.

Ras Kuuku Is Out With A New Single ‘Atia’, A Vocal Tribute To Burger Highlife
![](https://dawuroo.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Atia-Cover.jpeg)
Ras Kuuku is doing everything possible to prove his worth as a lead male vocalist. His latest release “Atia” signs him off as one of the best mainstream male vocalists.
According to Ras Kuuku, the urbanized form of Highlife, which many call ‘Burger Highlife’ seems to be going extinct because many have switched completely to Afrobeats and neglecting that side of the Ghanaian sound which graced many homes and speakers in the 1990s era. So he steps in the booth to throw some spotlight on the genre with ‘Atia’.
‘Atia’ is a very clean melodic song by the Dome-based Rasta Man which rides along the tale of love; wooing a female admirer with his swooning vocals and originality as a Ghanaian Act.
The song is OUT NOW on All Major Digital Streaming Platforms.
Listen Here: https://mipromo.ffm.to/raskuuku-atia
History of Burger Highlife:
Ghanaians in Germany created a secular style of Highlife that combined the genre with funk, disco, and synth-pop. It is believed it was called ‘Burger Highlife’ because the largest communities of Ghanaians resided in Hamburg. The music became associated with migrants who would travel between Germany and Ghana.
Iconic Highlife Musician, George Darko, was known as the “King of Burger Highlife”. The exceptionally talented guitarist and vocalist revolutionized Highlife music and produced hit songs such as ‘Akoo Te Brofo,’ ‘Money Palaver,’ ‘Oseeyie,’ and ‘Odo Colour’ — he sadly passed away in 2024.
