Asiama is the emerging new voice in Ghanaian music, announcing his arrival with the release of ‘Akoma,’ a deeply moving debut single blending Highlife, Soul and the pulse of Afrobeats, ‘Akoma’ is a powerful introduction to Asiama’s sound–deeply rooted, genre-fluid, and soulfully expressive.
Born Emmanuel Asiamah Mensah in Effiduase, Ashanti Region, Asiama’s musical journey spans church choirs, acapella groups, theatre stages, and national festivals.
His debut single, ‘Akoma,’ is inspired by the Akan Adinkra symbol for ‘the heart’–a soulful and sincere prayer for strength, clarity, and spiritual guidance.
Fusing Ghanaian Highlife and R&B with modern lyrical storytelling, Asiama’s sound is both rooted in tradition and strikingly fresh.
‘Akoma’ tells the story of a soul torn between desire and discipline, longing and legacy–delivered with a voice as textured as a lived experience.
With performance roots in theatre and dance, Asiama brings choreographic precision and emotional depth to his live sets.
His rise from Kumasi’s local stages to performing with The Characters at Afrochella, Global Citizen Festival, Promiseland, and Rapperholic has positioned him as one of the country’s most magnetic young performers.
Asiama is mentored by Ghanaian musical icon Kwame Yeboah, who has praised him as “emotionally honest and musically rare.”
With the launch of ‘Akoma,’ Asiama invites listeners to tune into a voice that honours heritage while reaching fearlessly toward the future.
‘Akoma’ marks the first release from Asiama’s forthcoming debut single, a genre-defying collection shaped over four years of artistic growth and spiritual reflection.
The single is executive produced by Tina “Belove” Atiemo, whose creative and intuitive guidance has helped shape the soul and spirit of the project.
