LA-based Ghanaian singer, songwriter, and producer Sofie makes a splash on our site with her upbeat summer jam titled "We Dey". The self-produced song features fellow Ghanaian Afropop star and celebrity Sister Deborah, and it is accompanied by an infectious music video that was shot on location in Accra, Ghana. The infectious Afropop song is driven by exciting Ghanaian rhythms and melodies that see Sofie exploring the experience of living young and fast in one of Africa’s great cities, Accra.
With Sofie and Sister Deborah’s voices blending beautifully with the energetic and pulsating Afrocentric bass and drum grooves, the soundscape of "We Dey" paints a colourful musical picture, paired with illustrative lyrics that will take both fans and critics on an incredible journey as they listen to the lush offering. The glorious lyrics speak for themselves and portray the fun essence of Sofie and Sister Deborah, while the accompanying visuals, directed by Onasis Gaisie, bring those same lyrics and that essence further to life by capturing the very magic of living young and free in Accra.
Raised between Ghana and the UK, Sofie’s soulful R&B-driven sound crosses borders, and with ‘We Dey’, she is firmly embracing her Ghanaian roots by fusing West African instrumentation, rhythms, and melodies into her sonic repertoire. Having recently graduated from Berklee College of Music, some of Sofie’s early career highlights include releasing two acclaimed EPs, playing the main stage at Ghana’s Chalewote Festival, performing at the African Diaspora Homecoming Gala, opening for the Afrobeats to the World concert in New York’s Times Square.
