KJ Spio comes together with the talented Ghanaian Afro-soul/Afro-fusion singer Gyakie for the new single ‘Days Pass By’.

It is a beautiful, romantic Afro-soul track that lets Gyakie’s rich and velvety voice soar high above the melodies, weaving a powerful tale of a love story with emotive lyrics that ignite feelings. Produced by BlaiseBeatz [Ruger, BNXN, Adekunle Gold, Ckay, Davido], the track was made in Ghana in a session between KJ Spio and Gyakie.

When asked about the release KJ Spio said, “We wanted to tell a story that resonated with both of us, with this record, it's a story we both agree on. It’s a relatable story. When you have a special bond with someone so special that you want to share it”.

Following on from an incredible roll-out releasing single after single including ‘Jealous’ earlier this year, a collaboration between himself, UK singer Loick, Roc Nation U.S singer Ambré, and African rap giant Sarkodie, KJ is showcasing his eye for talent and musical artistry. Building a collection of big singles and heading towards a project release next year, KJ Spio will release a remix of this track with a well-known UK/African collective.

Gyakie has been rising since bursting onto the scene with her debut single ‘Love is Pretty’ in 2019. Since then, she has collaborated with the likes of AKA, Diplo, Blaq Jerzee, Major League DJz, and Mayorkun. Her breakout single ‘Forever’ gained international recognition and has amassed over 150m streams across platforms.
