Ghanaian AfroSoul and R&B artist Darkua has released her first single for the year “Say My Name”. As a follow-up to her successful 2023 single “Echo,” Darkua cements her status as the poster girl for RNB in Ghana with “Say My Name.”
“Say My Name” pays homage to 2000s RnB with a twist of Darkua’s style. Production credits go to Gv Made It, High Jam & Albert Keyz (keyboardist). “Say My Name” reflects the feeling of being liberated from a dishonest lover, while spitefully wishing for the best and the worst. “It gets better, I’ll be better. I pray you say my name when you spread her.”
Speaking about the record, Darkua said; “I have a great interest in RnB music. My debut single ‘Amalelor’ has an RnB touch, which makes it more of an Afro RnB record. But with ‘Say My Name’, I got the chance to fully explore the R&B genre. Listening to artists like Jorja Smith has put things into perspective for me. RnB is a growing genre in Ghana, and it has received the spotlight it deserves. I am willing to lead the charge in Ghana and make my mark in the R&B scene. As far as production is concerned, I took my time with the record and collaborated with two producers and a keyboardist to bring my vision to life. I’m happy to say that the final product came out perfect.”
Darkua’s capacity as a singer with a beautiful voice, melodic inclinations with R&B influences, and a writer with meaningful, relatable emotions forming the premise for her lyricism, cannot go unnoticed.
