This melancholy distills into a bottle of ‘Hennessy,’ where Yaw pours out his pain: “To be a man is not joke, no lie,” he sings as he scrambles to escape his everyday woes.

It’s a dazzling piece bursting with sensual vibes and will have you missing your lover, setting up the next track, ‘Chargie.’

A destined romantic anthem for sure, Yaw Blvck and LIUGEEBOI form a match made in heaven to do justice to this groovy sound blessed with nifty lyricism and a catchy hook. The result is a smashing sound that guarantees countless replays.
