Darkovibes is part of a new wave of Ghanaian musicians who are redefining the country’s music scene by infusing it with contemporary elements while preserving its cultural roots. In his sophomore album, BUTiFLY, Ghanaian musician Darkovibes once again showcases his genre-blending artistry, seamlessly fusing traditional Ghanaian sounds with modern influences. Known for hits like “Stay Woke” and “Tomorrow,” Darkovibes’ unique style sets him apart in the Afrobeat and hip-life music scenes.
This 17-track album is a testament to Darkovibes’ musical evolution and versatility. With a star-studded lineup of collaborators, including Davido, Wizkid, and Not3s, the album offers infectious rhythms, heartfelt lyrics, and irresistible melodies. It’s a celebration of love, life, and the essence of women, resonating with a universal language that connects us all.
While experimenting with genres like Afro-Reggae and contemporary dancehall on a song like “Around The Globe“, Darkovibes maintains his distinctive sound throughout the album. The title “BUTiFLY” not only reflects his perspective on beauty but also symbolizes the harmonious collaboration of artists in the world of music. The album leans less on hip hop, a departure from his previous work, but ends on a high note with “Legends Never Die,” a relaxing trap song reflecting on his journey and aspirations for the future.
