    The new track follows the reflective Sankofa, released in May, and further establishes Gyakie’s reputation for blending soulful introspection with Afro-fusion finesse.

    Emerging from the quiet, reflective atmosphere that defines her upcoming project, Unconditional explores themes of romantic yearning and the desire for love that is freely given, not earned.

    With lyrics like, “Come and give me love, you no for pay,” Gyakie delivers a direct and heartfelt message that strips relationships down to their most honest core, seeking affection without strings attached.

    Unlike the upbeat dancefloor bangers currently dominating West Africa’s charts, Unconditional takes a softer, more contemplative approach. Gyakie’s velvet-smooth vocals carry the weight of longing with grace, layered over a mellow yet rich Afro-fusion instrumental. The soundscape feels warm and intimate, drawing listeners into a space where emotional vulnerability is celebrated, not masked.

    The track positions Gyakie as a leading figure in the movement of African artists, reshaping what modern Afrobeats and R&B can sound like. While contemporaries like Black Sherif stretch the boundaries of genre with raw, emotive storytelling, Gyakie leans into a quieter power, offering listeners a soundtrack to love’s most personal and honest moments.

    Unconditional highlights a more forthright Gyakie, unafraid to express her desires but doing so with the poise and grace that made her breakout single, Forever, a regional and global success. Her ability to balance emotional openness with self-respect shines throughout the song, affirming her growth as both a vocalist and a songwriter.

    Having earned the 2022 3Music Woman of the Year award and international acclaim with Forever charting on Billboard, Gyakie is proving she’s more than just a viral hitmaker. Unconditional is a clear indicator of an artist transitioning from the spotlight of early success into a more grounded, long-term musical identity.

    As anticipation builds for the release of After Midnight, Unconditional offers a taste of the album’s direction—one where late-night emotions and lyrical honesty meet rich, contemporary African rhythms. It’s a statement of intent from an artist who understands that true strength often lies in soft moments and sincere words.

    With this latest offering, Gyakie continues to cement her place among Africa’s most soulful and sincere voices, proving that in a world full of noise, subtlety and sincerity still resonate the loudest.
