Ghanaian artiste, Wiyaala, has decided to embark on an 11-week music release journey from May 31, 2024.
The “Leno” hitmaker will release a new song every Friday until August 9, 2024. The releases will comprise a remix of her hit song, “Rock My Body” which features Ghanaian dancehall act, Jupitar, among others.
According to John Sherren, Wiyaala’s manager, the decision was made to release the songs in the singer’s vault before Wiyaala released her third album.
“We are just clearing the decks in Wiyaala’s song vault before her third studio album drops in the second half of the year, assuming we can get all our ducks in a row,” the manager said.
