Blakid’s “Baa Sumo Mi” Melts Hearts with Soulful Love Anthem in Afrobeats Surge

ACCRA — Ghanaian rapper Blakid, signed to Rych Entertainment, has unveiled a tender side with his new single “Baa Sumo Mi,” meaning “Come and Love Me” in Ga. Departing from his signature rap-heavy style, Blakid embraces heartfelt singing, delivering a smooth, melodic love song that’s captivating fans and sparking romance across the Afrobeats scene.

Produced by in-house maestro King Beatz, “Baa Sumo Mi” weaves an emotional soundscape that showcases Blakid’s versatility. “It’s about love that makes you want to give your whole heart,” he shared, aiming to touch both singles dreaming of love and couples cherishing their partners. Listeners are raving, calling it “the kind of song that makes you want to fall in love all over again.” Accompanied by a visualizer directed by Da Governor on YouTube and streaming on Audiomack, the track has ignited a trending dance challenge, with Blakid humorously admitting he’s still mastering the moves.

The release comes amid a global Afrobeats wave. On April 25, Zinoleesky’s debut album Gen Z shattered Spotify Nigeria’s record with 2,458,077 opening-day streams, while Ayra Starr and Wizkid dropped “Gimme Dat.” Wizkid, Rema, Tems, and Asake also earned nominations for Favorite Afrobeats Artist at the 51st American Music Awards, set for May 26 in Las Vegas. Skales amplified the genre’s reach by performing “Shake Body” at Barcelona’s Copa del Rey celebration, and Megan Thee Stallion launched her fiery single “Whenever.” Migos’ Quavo continued his Hollywood push with High Rollers alongside John Travolta, while Los Angeles–based Monsieur Belange released “Jack in the Box,” a ’90s-infused hip-hop anthem, via DistroKid.
