Tema singer Kweku Pee brings real energy to his 7-track debut, but the songs underneath borrow too heavily from what already works.

Kweku Smoke's seventh album runs 13 tracks on street hustle, loyalty and faith, and he carries most of it alone. The review finds him as consistent as he has ever been.

Moliy's debut mixtape has the club-ready production and the features. The songwriting underneath is too thin to carry 12 tracks.

O'Kenneth moves past the early Asakaa sound on 'CAME OF AGE', an 18-track album about fame, loss and growing up.

Kwesi Arthur answers years of label friction and 'fall-off' talk with an eight-track album about contracts, migration and money owed to family. The review finds him as direct as he has ever been on record.

Gyakie's 17-track debut has strong Afro-R&B and highlife moments, but the length and the interchangeable ballads undercut them. The review argues the album needed an editor.

Amaarae's third album aims higher than anything she has made and gets there often enough to matter. It is also the first time her production has worked against her.

Black Sherif's second album keeps the highlife, drill and street storytelling that made his name instead of softening for crossover. Fifteen tracks, with the emotional cost of survival left at the centre.
