Ghanaian highlife music is receiving a powerful revival with the release of “Twimasi,” a new song by Gyasehene Fire Man, released under OGYA DAM WORLDWIDE Entertainment.
The record brings together a rich blend of tradition, live instrumentation, and cultural storytelling, elements that once defined Ghana’s most celebrated sound.
For decades, highlife music has gradually slipped from the mainstream spotlight, overshadowed by modern genres and changing industry dynamics.
Yet its essence, deeply rooted in Ghana’s history, identity, and communal spirit, has never truly disappeared. Twimasi emerges as a bold reminder that highlife still holds relevance, depth, and global appeal.
Meanwhile, the project is a collaborative effort led by Mistacii, alongside Gyasehene Fire Man and the Odikro International Band, all united by a shared mission to restore the soul of authentic Ghanaian music. Built on live band arrangements, warm melodies, and meaningful lyrical expression, Twimasi reflects the true spirit of classic highlife while speaking to today’s audience.
Speaking on the vision behind the release, Gyasehene described the song as more than just music, calling it “a revival, a homecoming, and a gift to the world.”
According to him, Twimasi is intended to reintroduce global audiences to Ghana through sound, its rhythms, stories, and cultural pride, while reigniting appreciation for a genre that shaped generations.
With its fire and water themed artwork and the bold declaration that “Highlife Is Back,” Twimasisymbolizes renewal, resilience, and cultural pride.
The release reinforces OGYA DAM WORLDWIDE Entertainment’s growing commitment to promoting heritage music and supporting live band artistry on both local and international stages.
