FYC -Rocky Dawuni “Rise” for “Best Global Music Performance”

Rocky Dawuni, the 3x GRAMMY-nominated Ghanaian singer/songwriter known as ‘The King of Afro Roots’ has released his new single and video through Aquarian Records via Tuff Gong International Distribution. The first taste of his highly-anticipated forthcoming new album is a timely anthem for overcoming adversity and celebrating life’s victories. Underpinned by powerful, uplifting lyrics, “Rise’” also doubles as a call to action emboldening communities across the black diaspora to imagine the endless possibilities available if they remain aligned in the mutual vision to achieve true liberation and freedom.
​
“Align your inner rhythms and find yourself rising up with this motivating single from Ghanaian singer and activist Rocky Dawuni. Especially now, lyrics like “imagine what we could do if we unify” just hit differently. Case in point, Dawuni calls the song a “call to arms to elevate the energy of hope.” Damn. We needed that. Click play for West African beats, emboldening melodies, and a stunning video featuring dancers and imagery highlighting the cultural heritage of Dawuni’s native Ghana.” – KCRW
