Azawi
Azawi seals off a jam packed final quarter for the year 2023 with “Outside” visuals, one of the songs that features on her “Sankofa” album.
Produced by Ghanaian producer Groovy World, “Outside” is an upbeat Afro-pop song that calls upon everyone to let loose, have fun and break free from the shackles of the house, hence the title, “Outside”.
Swangz Avenue enlisted the services of frequent collaborator and alumnus, Aaronaire, who is currently riding off the success of mega smash hit, “Believe”, a song labelmate Vinka collaborated on with new kid on the block, Dax Vibez.
In the “Outside” video, Aaronaire creates for Azawi, a minimalistic, colourful, African utopia in which Azawi flexes her definition of cool, hangs out in an orbit of millennials and Gen Zs on a rooftop, as they drink, dance and conversate the moment away.
Aaronaire pushes his boundary in terms of fashion, dance routine and colour harmony as you can tell that Azawi’s aesthetics rubbed off on his craft.
With a sack load of treasures, gems, a continental nomination and an album, Azawi has no plan for rest as she further cements her position as East Africa’s most talented and prolific youngster at the moment.
Azawi, has been deliberate about wanting it all, admitting to envisioning herself filling stadiums in the UK, South Africa and winning a Grammy.
