BET Award-winning Ghanaian reggae and dancehall heavyweight Stonebwoy sharpens his street-facing edge on “Wake Up”, a 2026 single which has been launched through its official music video ahead of its broader digital release.
The record talks directly to the youth, and with an alert and deliberate tone, makes sense of Stonebwoy’s long-standing ability to mix dancehall energy with sentiments rooted in the everyday realities and self-awareness of the people.
“Wake Up” also strongly anchors him in the dancehall aspect of his talent, where he has carved a significant presence across Ghana and beyond, while yet shifting comfortably between reggae, Afropop and Afrobeats.
The record adds to a decorated career that includes a 2015 BET Award for Best International Act: Africa and multiple significant Ghanaian music honors, underlining the steadiness that has placed Stonebwoy in the ranks of the continent’s acclaimed singers.
The official video is already accessible on YouTube and the audio will be released on major digital streaming platforms on August 28, 2026. Give it a listen and let us know what you think below in the comments.
