AratheJay unveils tracklist for debut album
Ghanaian artiste and rising storyteller AratheJay has officially unveiled the tracklist for his highly anticipated debut album, ‘The Odyssey’, set for release on 24 October.
The announcement has generated excitement across Ghana’s music scene and beyond, cementing the project as one of the most anticipated African releases of the year.
Serving as the next chapter in his conceptual ‘Finding Nimo Series’, The Odyssey expands on the cinematic themes introduced in his 2024 EP, The Capsule. With a broader sonic palette and elevated storytelling, the LP promises to be AratheJay’s most ambitious project yet.
The tracklist features a strong pan-African lineup, pairing AratheJay’s lyrical introspection with some of the continent’s most dynamic voices.
Collaborators include Black Sherif on the explosive ‘Jesus Christ 2’, Stonebwoy on the anthemic ‘Talisman’, Kweku Smoke on the reflective ‘Peace 2’, Beeztrap KOTM and O’Kenneth on the street-infused ‘Ahuofe’, Bella Shmurda (Nigeria) on the high-energy ‘Fire’, Savara (Kenya) on the romantic ‘Say I Do’, and Joshua Baraka (Uganda) on the introspective ‘Box’.
Coinciding with the album’s release, AratheJay is also gearing up for his debut European tour in November, with confirmed stops in Hamburg, Amsterdam, and London, marking his official step onto the global stage.
The Odyssey drops on 24 October on all major streaming platforms.
