SuperJazzClub Drops ‘Wicked Remix’ Video Featuring Cruel Santino, Teases Monochrome Radio Deluxe
Ghanaian music collective SuperJazzClub have released the highly-anticipated visual for “Wicked (Remix),” featuring Nigerian alté star Cruel Santino. The video, now available on YouTube, follows the remix’s audio release in May and offers a moody, stylish complement to the track’s dark party energy.

Originally released in 2023, “WICKED” gets a new life with Cruel Santino’s genre-blending flair. The remix was produced by Øbed, a member of SuperJazzClub, who describes the process as spontaneous: “The beat was made in 10 minutes — it felt like painting with vibes.” The track balances a moodier tone with undeniable groove, reaffirming SuperJazzClub’s gift for creating cinematic, genre-pushing music that lives in both the alternative and mainstream.
“It’s very shocking that the original version of ‘Wicked’ is two years old already. We remember having to make this record in just under 10 minutes; the fastest we have ever made a song. Two years down the line, we are sharing the remix with Cruel Santino — an amazing Nigerian artist further strengthening our Ghana-Nigeria alliance,” the group shared in a statement.
In the words of member BiQo, “No sleep for the wicked, we double down on the wicked.”
The “Wicked (Remix)” serves as the first single off the upcoming Deluxe Edition of Monochrome Radio, SuperJazzClub’s acclaimed 2023 EP. Built on a sonic palette of early 2000s R&B, hip-hop, afro-fusion, and Ghanaian hiplife, Monochrome Radio is both a celebration of nostalgia and a futuristic experiment in African sound. The group describes it as “our expression of what we want to turn on the radio and hear,” and a nod to the past sounds that shaped them.
With more music and visuals expected soon, the collective continues to push boundaries — fusing cultures, genres, and generations.
Concrete Club have always had that thing going on where they’re pulling from post-punk and indie rock without sounding like they’re trying to prove anything. This track takes that further. The synths sit in a way that makes you listen, and there’s this rhythm that just locks in and makes you want to move without thinking about it. It’s the kind of song structure that works on you after a few listens, not just the first time through.
What I’ve noticed about Concrete Club is that they’re not interested in smoothing out the rough parts. They’ve been grinding the Manchester circuit, building an actual following, and their songs aren’t about sounding polished. They’re about real things: what it’s like living in a city, losing track of time on nights out, trying to find something that makes sense when nothing does. “People Like Us” fits right into that.
Rowetta’s featured spot here is the thing that makes it work. Her voice against Jonny Brewster’s, with Kallum Delf on guitar, Mark Demuth holding down the bass, and Jamie Butterworth on drums, it all just clicks. They brought in Jonny McGill to handle the drums on this one, and you can feel the fresh energy that brought, but it still sounds unmistakably like them.
This is a song that gets better the more you sit with it. If you’ve been sleeping on Concrete Club, this is the one to start with. Listen here.
