MeanAugustine Releases “Addiction” EP – A Deep Dive into Love, Desire, and Relationships
Ghanaian artist and producer MeanAugustine has officially released his much-anticipated debut EP, “Addiction”, a bold and emotionally charged exploration of love in its many forms. The eight-track project delivers a compelling narrative of passion, heartbreak, attraction, and desire, all set against a backdrop of infectious beats and dynamic production.
From the opening track “Crazy”, which tells the story of a woman asserting control in a one-night stand, to the heartfelt struggles of balancing love and financial stability in “Masherita”, MeanAugustine effortlessly captures the complexities of relationships. “Addicted” dives into raw, unfiltered passion, while “God Designed” celebrates beauty and questions love’s deeper meanings.
The EP also takes a melancholic turn with “Obi Mpena”, where MeanAugustine laments the pain of lost love, and “Fly You”, a romantic confession about unspoken feelings for a long-time crush. The energy ramps up with “Kukrudu”, an electrifying anthem packed with metaphors of healing and movement, before closing with “Packaging”, a playful yet cautionary tale about attraction and appearances.
Entirely self-produced except for “Masherita” (produced by Itz CJ Made It), “Addiction” highlights MeanAugustine’s versatility as both an artist and producer. Art Direction for the EP was handled by 1AnnorChris, giving the project a strong identity beyond the music
With Addiction, MeanAugustine sets the stage for what’s next in his career, proving he’s an artist worth paying attention to.
About MeanAugustine
Born Augustine Osei on December 10, MeanAugustine is a Ghanaian artist who started making music in 2015. Inspired by his parents’ love for music, MeanAugustine wrote his very first song about a High School crush. He loved the idea of his expressing his feelings via music and has since not looked back. With loads of unreleased music, he is optimistic of delivering the best of back to back entertainment to his growing audience nationwide.
Spanish singer-songwriter Francisco, now based in the UK, returns with his latest release “Passing Fix”, a raw, fast-moving standout from his new album Open Letters.
If heartbreak had a soundtrack while it’s still actively happening (and not yet processed), this would be it.
Blending alternative rock, folk, and indie-experimental production, Open Letters explores emotional dependency, longing, and the messy space between connection and collapse. But “Passing Fix” is where things get especially unfiltered; a spiralling mix of humour, bitterness, vulnerability, and brutal self-awareness.
It’s the sound of overthinking in real time.
The song started with a single, very honest chorus line:
“If I’m still single by 28 I’ll drown myself in liquor, be a spinster…”
From there, Francisco built a track that feels like emotional overload in motion: part diary entry, part breakdown, part ironic commentary on his own thoughts.
Wanting it to feel like the emotional aftermath of his earlier track “21/7”, Francisco leans fully into obsession, self-sabotage, and the way we sometimes blame ourselves just to make sense of hurt.
“Passing Fix” doesn’t just describe heartbreak; it lives inside it, spirals through it, and somehow turns it into something strangely cathartic.
