“Dey Your Body” is a Captivating Song About Desire

Desire is humbling. One minute you are a fully functioning human being, the next you are replaying conversations, imagining things, people, body parts… 


M3NSA's new track Dey Your Body, is an unfiltered look into that space, that consuming pull that can make you give yourself away. 

And let's be real, this level of vulnerability is often uncommon; for the demographic, and for the genre. We get confidence, swag, but a song about openly (desperately) wanting someone without pretending to be unbothered, that's rare. The self-deprecation - using humour, hopelessness and obsession - is the weapon of charm here.


The truth is desire makes us fools.


In Dey Your Body, the feeling is not evenly reciprocated, for it is unrealistic, but it’s funny, and funnily enough, real. 

So if you’ve ever stared at a ceiling, questioning why ANYTHING has this much power over your peace of mind, congratulations. You’re human. And M3NSA made this one for you.

Dey Your Body is available on all streaming platforms from March 7.

TOYL (Time Of Your Life ) Music Video

Shot in one single take, the video is like a visual meditation on the present moment. No cuts, no interruptions—just life flowing as it is. It’s a vibe that reminds you to let go and live in the now because, spoiler alert: you can’t control the flow anyway.

With its soft ‘80s glow and dreamy lighting, the camera follows its subjects in one seamless motion, pulling you into the scene and making you feel like you’re part of the story. Fans of M3NSA’s previous hit, "Forward," will recognize his knack for using the camera as a metaphor for life’s constant movement. And with "TOYL," he nails it again—blurring the lines between music, visuals, and conceptual style.

Let’s not forget the track itself. It’s already a standout for M3NSA fans, blending his signature mix of past and present sounds. It’s nostalgic, it’s fresh, and it makes you want to hit repeat (and maybe reevaluate your approach to life?).

Life keeps moving, whether you want it to or not. That’s why you’ve got to live it—this is your time.

Watch the "TOYL" video now.

TOYL ( Time Of Your Life ) - OUT NOW

"TOYL" is the perfect Afrobeats song, radiating summer vibes that we crave even in the depths of winter. It’s a celebration of life, love, and the joy of seizing the moment. M3NSA captures the essence of Afrobeats—music meant for enjoyment and good feelings and makes you want to get up and live.

For those who might find this song unexpected from M3NSA, it's a reminder that he’s been a force in the Afrobeats scene for over a decade. "Time of Your Life" is a natural evolution from the artist who gave us arguably one of the best Ghanaian love songs, "Fante Love Song."

New release : Obaa No feat. Kwame Yeboah

It all begins with an idea.

M3NSA announces the release of his latest single,"Obaa No" ( That Woman ), the first track off his upcoming EP FOLAH1 (the first EP of a three-part project ).

FOLAH, an acronym for Fear Of Love and Happiness, it's an explorative journey through feelings, emotions, relationships, love, romance, and everything in between. 

The project is M3NSA's reimagining of the evolution of Afrobeat and Hiplife from his perspective. 

This song tells the story of a woman who embodies grace, strength, and self-awareness. She navigates life's challenges with a poised determination that makes everything look effortless. 

Like the Girl From Ipanema, there's nothing more beautiful and mysterious to the observer. It is an ode to encouraging her to pursue her dreams and ambitions, acknowledging that she already possesses everything she needs within herself. The lyrics express admiration and validation, as the observer feels enriched and affirmed by her presence rather than the other way around.

In this state, love is self-empowerment, admiration, reflection, and observation. It's almost a meditative status inspired by the recipient of our feelings.

The song's production is the nostalgia-inducing, 1970’s highlife jam, where Funk and Soul music from the likes of James Brown and his peers heavily influenced Black music globally. Highlife musicians like Nana (Kwame) Ampadu introduced intricate basslines that danced on the beat themselves like a percussion, and your only destination was straight to the dancefloor!  Recording Academy member and prolific multi-instrumentalist Kwame Yeboah demonstrates this bass technique so eloquently on Obaa No. The production showcases the connection between the two artists highlighting their ability to harness the power of Ghanaian music to create epic cultural moments. Through sampling, rhythms, and a fusion of styles, they capture a distinctly Ghanaian yet international sound.

Obaa No is not just an ode to a woman; it’s an ode to a culture and an idea of emancipation that Ghana hopefully has the same grace and resilience to achieve soon.
