Afro-Soul sensation KJ kick-starts 2025 with banging record ‘Follow’

Ghanaian Afrosoul artist KJ explores his versatility and range with the release of his first single for 2025 dubbed “Follow.”
KJ drifts away from deep-rooted lyrics into a more relaxed tone on the mid-tempo record to move his listeners onto the dance floor.
On “Follow,” he sings his heart out for a lover while mesmerizing the listener with his silky free-flowing vocals. The song, written by KJ and produced by Nana Osei Arthur, is a light-hearted piece that shows a rare playfulness absent in many of KJ’s works, exhibiting a fun glimpse into the moments of seeing and proceeding to pursue a beautiful woman. It’s a welcomed reprieve from his darker work and helps to show his versatility in which even the smallest moment can be used for his inspiration.
Unlike his previous works written to detail hardship, love, loss, and overcoming, “Follow,” follows a more eased-up approach yet the artist does not compromise on the quality of his production and delivery.
Not only does he wow that beautiful damsel with his lyrics, but the elegant rhythmic performance produces an exquisite euphonious record for that lone night out with a loved one.
“Follow” sets the mood right and with simple yet spellbinding words like: “And I’m tryna play my cards right; Is you the queen of hearts; I need to know,” it certainly does the trick.
KJ lays it bare on the over three-minute song – he’s vulnerable, ready to offer everything and still measured. His vocal performance is unmatched and although it’s early days yet, he makes a fine case for vocalist of the year with his delivery on this latest song.
Testify? He certainly wins your vote after the first listen while you win that crush’s heart with the sound. Fair game? Stream “Follow” by KJ on all digital streaming platforms here.
Follow, yeah literally, follow KJ on social media here: Instagram and X.

Kingdom Kome x RUEN see the “Cracks In The Foundation”

Hip-Hop Heavyweight Kingdom Kome has just dropped a new single (with accompanying video). “Cracks In the Foundation” (Produced by long-time collaborator RUEN) is a socially conscious dose of jazzy boom-bap. As the emcee states “I was driving through my old neighborhood in Miami and it really had me thinking of the current state of the world today. It got me in an introspective state and I made this message to the youth.”

Available via streaming platforms now, “Cracks In the Foundation” is the first leak from the Barrel Reserve LP fully produced by RUEN.
Less than a year after the last collaborative LP the duo dropped, Malbec 2 Kingdom Kome reveals “we never stop working on music together. A number of these tracks were recorded while we were preparing Malbec 2 but were better suited for a separate project.”
Following the high-end connoisseur angle, Barrel Reserve is expertly crafted boom-bap for the real hip-hop aficionado. This extends to the album’s guest list, which includes Supreme Cerebral, Recognize Ali, Che Uno, DJ Exes, AjaxLo, Camarah Walleed and Soarse Spoken.
Kingdom Kome is still promoting his other recent LP for 2025 Alchemy II Ein Sof, which was entirely produced by another long-time production collaborator Onaje Jordan (Hometeam).
