Ghanaian Artist Lamisi Shares New Single “Come” From ‘Let Us Clap’

Lamisi has shared “Come,” the second single from her forthcoming album ‘Let Us Clap,’ marking a new phase in her collaboration with producer and musical director Wanlov the Kubolor. Released via Real World Records, the track brings Lamisi’s soulful vocal style into dialogue with contemporary production, weaving traditional northern Ghanaian rhythms with modern textures. The song reflects Lamisi’s ongoing commitment to social change, rooted in her work leading the Lamisi Fata Foundation, which supports girls and young women in northern Ghana.

On “Come,” Lamisi draws inspiration from everyday village exchanges, translating call-and-response conversation into music built around rhythm and interaction. She describes the song as being about generosity balanced with dignity and healthy boundaries. Across ‘Let Us Clap,’ handclaps form the core of the music, reshaping long-standing women’s clapping traditions into compositions that combine organic grooves with electronic processing, shifting tempos, and heavily treated vocals. The result feels grounded in heritage while moving deliberately forward.

Wanlov the Kubolor describes the project as forward-looking music shaped by where people come from, rather than nostalgia. Known for his work across hip-hop, film, and activism, he brings a satirical and socially engaged sensibility to the album. For Lamisi, the record also carries personal urgency, reflecting on how access to education and opportunity remains uneven for girls in her home region. Through ‘Let Us Clap,’ she centers women’s voices, turning rhythm, collaboration, and collective movement into tools for empowerment.
