Sweet Danger
Obongjayar’s new single “Sweet Danger” is a wild, flirtatious ride packed with swagger and energy. The track blends sultry guitars, syncopated drums, and a brass fanfare, creating a sound that’s both bold and smooth. Obongjayar winks through his self-assured vocals, singing lines like “I’m a wild boy baby, I am trouble,” with a playful edge. The song’s infectious beat matches the intoxicating chaos he sings about, making it feel like a sweet and reckless adventure.
The music video, directed by Sophie Jones, ups the ante, set in a gritty South London hotel where Obongjayar rides a mechanical bull—symbolizing life’s unpredictable thrills. Produced by Kwes Darko (Pa Salieu) and Yeti Beats (Doja Cat), “Sweet Danger” teases what’s to come on Paradise Now. Featuring Little Simz on “Talk Olympics,” Obongjayar’s forthcoming album promises intimate storytelling wrapped in electro-pop, soul, and a dash of unpredictability. This track is a perfect preview of the chaos and beauty he’s about to unleash.
