Ghanaian rising star WavyDenkyi’s latest single, “SANSANI,” released 2 Nov. 2023, is an Afro hip hop bop that grooves with individuality and challenges societal expectations.
“SANSANI” starts with a warm, almost lazy groove punctuated by soulful trumpet blasts. WavyDenkyi’s flow is effortless, weaving through lines with smooth precision alongside the tapping beats. The momentum is steady until the chorus hits, and the song starts to pulse with vibrance and electrifying charisma. The beat transforms, morphing into a driving force that compels you to move. WavyDenkyi’s rapping becomes a catchy hook, his voice blending swagger and vulnerability and coming off as resilient.
The cinematic music video takes “SANSANI” to a whole new level. The camerawork is sharp as it captures the essence and romanticizes the streets of Ghana. The angles and the spontaneity of the well-arranged setting may look effortless, but you can see how much thought went behind it. You see a trumpet player playing his tunes like a clarion call from a wooden lodging up above greeting the sombreity of the artist’s circumstances with an artful and romantic candor.
As for WavyDenkyi circumstances, we get the upshot of the artist rapping his lines while lying on the street—positively disheveled. And the scenes start rewinding back to how it all began with a failed heist. With the aesthetic color grading, professional video editing, and crisp background sounds, the song gets a surprisingly good illustration to stand on.
Fans of Sarkodie and Joey B and Afro hip hop will find a lot to love here. “SANSANI” has got the energy for summer jams, and the message about staying true to yourself, even when the world tells you you’re “good for nothing.”
