Ghanaian Afrobeat artist Darkovibes has released a new single, Yao, the second preview from his upcoming EP BUTiFLY, set for early next year.
Following his jazzy track Happy Day, Yao is a mid-tempo, rap-inspired song blending Afrobeat vocals with elements of street slang, patois, and Ga. The song encourages resilience and celebration of life, with Darkovibes describing it as “pure African spiritual vibes.”
Produced by Killbeatz, Yao has a catchy, danceable beat, making it perfect for repeat listens. Known for his breakout hit Tomorrow and collaborations with stars like Davido and Mr Eazi, Darkovibes continues to establish himself as a genre-blending artist.
His 2022 hit Je M’appelle with Davido racked up millions of views, further solidifying his reputation. Yao is available on all digital platforms and sets the stage for his BUTiFLY EP in 2023.
