Fasting rising Ghanaian artist Kofi Jamar has teamed up with BET Award winner and Nigeria’s finest Iceprince Zamani together with the King of the East Khaligraph Jones to bring new single ‘In The City’.

This is his 2nd single of the year after having a successful 2019 with three hot singles (Roll On, Mi Dey Up + Asuoden feat. Medikal) and starting 2020 with a soul-touching single ‘Mariama’ which was released on Valentine’s Day.

'In The City' is dubbed to evaluate the brand Kofi Jamar into an international realm, taking into consideration a great mass appeal after his nomination at the 2020 Vodafone Ghana Music Award in the “Unsung Category”. This is to place him on a radar above all.

‘In The City’ as the title has it is a song that defines and represents the culture and unmatched lifestyle of the African elites. Song was produced by one of Nigeria’s best sound men Jaysynths.

The official visuals was directed and shot by Kobe Outta. Born and raised in Ghana, Kofi Jamar is no stranger to his country's Afrobeat scene.

Crowned as one of the best freestyle rappers in his region at the age of 18 by a local radio station, he went on to find commercial success with a remix of Yemi Alade's "Johnny' in his hometown of Kumasi. After a year's break in 2017, he signed with GADone Records in 2018.

With a few critically-acclaimed singles under his belt and plans for an imminent debut full-length project soon, Kofi Jamar is ready to secure his place as one of the most exciting musical exports Ghana has to offer.

'In The City' is available across all major streaming platforms from today March 27 2020
