Musician Gyakie has joined the star-studded lineup of South African rapper AKA's posthumous album, Mass Country.

The album was released on February 24, 2023.

The album, described as a "parting gift" and "love letter to South Africa," showcases AKA's love for his homeland and the diverse sounds that make up the local music scene.

It also features a host of South Africa's hottest hip-hop talent, including Khuli Chana, Blxckie, Nadia Nakai, Emtee, Yanga Chief, Sjava, and more.

Gyakie's feature on the album is a pre-released single titled “Paradise,” which features Musa Keys. It’s a love song where AKA sings and raps about all he’s willing to do and has done for the love of his life.

AKA expressed his love for Gyakie's voice in a Guide Radio interview in 2022.

The duo recorded the song later that year during one of Gyakie's visits to South Africa, where she performed at South Africa’s Homecoming Festival and also received a double platinum certification plaque for her 2021 single, Forever.
