‘Carry Me Go’ is the thirteenth track housed under King Promise’s second studio album ‘5 Star’ and it features Ghanaian Highlife crooner Bisa Kdei.
Ghanaian singer-songwriter King Promise, real name Gregory Bortey Newman, continues on the success of his 2019 debut, As Promised, by creatively reworking highlife and hiplife styles using modern pop and R&B frameworks. While the guest features on 5 Star’s songs, which span British drill, Dutch and Nigerian Afropop, and American hip-hop, add synergistic strength to half of the songs, the other half highlight King Promise as a strong soloist.
King Promise described the process of recording “Carry Me Go” as follows:
“The lyrics are a mix of Twi and English. The beat gave me a feeling to make a local love story, and that’s what I did there. There’s no other singer than Bisa Kdei who, I felt, would fit perfectly on this song. He’s someone whose craft I’ve always appreciated. So, it’s such an honour for me to also have him on a song.”
