Among the standout features is the collaboration with award-winning reggae/dancehall star Shatta Wale on the song Adiepena, which is poised to become a household hit.

King Paluta, the reigning New Artiste of the Year, delivers a musical masterpiece on this album, blending genres that span Hiplife, Reggae, Afrobeat, Rap, and Gospel. The diversity in musical style ensures that the album will appeal to a wide range of listeners.

The lyrical content of GTST speaks to people from all walks of life, with a balance between contemporary Ghanaian sounds and indigenous rhythms. It’s an album that takes listeners on a journey through love, celebration, faith, and reflection.

The album opens with the soulful track Mmaa No, where King Paluta beautifully expresses his admiration for women. Produced by DJ Breezy, the song is a smooth and melodious introduction to what lies ahead. The next track, Promise, keeps the theme of love alive, adding a highlife twist that makes it both sassy and deeply engaging with its groovy rhythms.

One of the most talked-about songs on the album is Makoma, which has already shattered streaming records and stands as one of the most popular tracks in Ghana in 2024. Its widespread success has made it a fan favorite, and it exemplifies King Paluta’s mastery of both storytelling and catchy hooks.

Adiepena, featuring Shatta Wale and produced by Apya, is arguably the highlight of the album. The track’s seductive Electronic Dance Music (EDM) beat paired with soothing vocal harmonies makes for a refreshing and emotional listening experience. Shatta Wale’s energy elevates the song, and it promises to be one of the defining hits of the season.

The eighth track, Time, offers a deep dive into King Paluta’s personal journey within the music industry. It’s a timeless Hiplife anthem that showcases his lyrical brilliance, narrating the struggles, lessons, and victories that have shaped his career.

In the middle of the album, King Paluta injects some lively party vibes with tracks like For the Popping, Magic, and Ahiaa. These energetic songs are sure to become party anthems, blending beats that will get fans on their feet.

The album concludes with two powerful gospel songs, Upon My Sins and Aseda. These final tracks are reflective and celebratory, with Aseda emerging as the most-streamed Ghanaian gospel song of 2024. Through these songs, King Paluta thanks God for his grace and guidance throughout his life and career, offering a heartfelt close to the album.
