Rhodes

Rising singer/songwriter Kwaku Asante is back with his first single of the year ‘Rhodes’, a vulnerable love story produced by HYLNU. Directed and edited by Kwaku himself, the video beautifully captures the singer and his love interest as they explore London.

‘Rhodes’ follows Kwaku as he comes to terms with the reality of realising you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone. Referring to the iconic Rhodes Jazz piano, every note he writes leads back to the one he let slip away as he uncovers the highs and lows of love and heartbreak. 

The gentle production perfectly fuses with Kwaku’s warm vocals revealing his ability to be unapologetically himself despite the risk of rejection. Shot by Dean Dumare, the artwork introduces the theme of nostalgia and pairs Kwaku’s desire to hold on to his youthful freedom with his contrasting all-black attire.
