Berlin-based independent artist Giddens releases his latest single, “Obroni Kɔkɔɔ,” a vibrant Afrofusion meets Afrohouse track that bridges diasporic identity, rhythmic energy, and compelling storytelling. The title, which means “Red Foreigner” in Twi, reflects Giddens’ experience growing up as a mixed-race child between Accra and Germany, and the song channels that dual heritage into an expressive, globally resonant sound.
“Obroni Kɔkɔɔ” blends Afrohouse percussion, Afrofusion vocals, and Ghanaian Pidgin storytelling to create a track that works just as well on the dancefloor as it does for reflective listening. Giddens’ music invites listeners into a space where cultural roots and modern global production intersect, offering something fresh yet familiar. The song is ideal for fans of Burna Boy, Black Coffee, and Major League DJz, while standing out as a bold, authentic alternative to formulaic Afropop.
Hailing from Berlin, Giddens draws inspiration from classic hip-hop roots and afrocentric sounds, crafting music that honors his influences while pushing genre boundaries. His sonic approach evokes a sense of nostalgia and discovery, capturing the attention of listeners seeking both innovation and emotional connection.
With “Obroni Kɔkɔɔ,” Giddens continues to establish his unique voice in the global music scene, delivering a track that is danceable, introspective, and culturally rich. The single is now available on all major streaming platforms.
